Highways in Taiwan are classified into five types:
National Freeway 3, also known as Formosa Freeway, is a freeway in Taiwan. It is the second north–south freeway in Taiwan, beginning in Keelung City at Jijin Interchange on the provincial highway 2 and ending in Linbian, Pingtung on the provincial highway 17. It is the longest freeway in Taiwan with the total length of 430.5 km (267.5 mi). The freeway is also the only one in the national freeway system with a spur route, Freeway 3A.

Also known as East-West Expressway, Bali-Xindian Line, the route begins in Port of Taipei in Bali District and ends near the west approach of Xiulang Bridge in Zhonghe District, linking many major population centers within New Taipei together, including Sanchong, Banqiao, and Zhonghe. It is one of the twelve east-west expressways of western Taiwan linking Freeways 1 and 3.
Provincial Highway No. 61 is usually known as West Coast Expressway (西部濱海快速公路). The highway runs along the west coast of Taiwan. Several sections of the highway are freeway standards with no at-grade intersections, while the rest are local highway standards. There are several sections open for the traffic. Others are still under construction.
The Civic Boulevard is a 4 to 6-lane highway located in Taipei, Taiwan. It was completed in 1997 as part of a multi-modal reconstruction project to improve transportation networks in congested central Taipei. The highway begins at the MacArthur Bridges in the east (connecting the Neihu district, and Keelung Road, heads west to an interchange with the Zhongxiao Bridge and the HuanHe Expressway, providing direct access to Taipei Main Station, which is just south of the Civic Blvd. Expressway in the Zhongzheng district. Since Civic Blvd. is elevated, there is also a surface-level frontage road system below the highway, connecting intersecting arterials with highway ramps. As part of the larger project, the elevated Civic Blvd. Expressway was constructed to provide a new, east–west highway through Taipei, moving the Taipei railway railroad tracks underground to reduce congestion at surface railroad crossings, and providing new underground parking options. Other additions to this project constructed new underground shopping malls in the vicinity of Taipei Main Station and provisions for utilities. In the future, tracks for the Taiwan High Speed Rail system will be added under existing tracks for the THSR's extension to Nangang in 2012.
Zhongxiao Road is a major arterial boulevard and part of provincial highway 5 in Taipei, Taiwan, connecting the Zhongzheng district in the west with the Daan, Songshan, Xinyi, and Nangang districts towards the east. Zhongxiao is known as a popular shopping and entertainment area, with many large department stores and shopping malls located along most of the entire stretch. About half of the Nangang Line of the Taipei Metro runs under the road, with stations located at major intersections along the road, which accounts for the significant pedestrian traffic along the road. The majority of the road is 8-10 lanes wide with a median dividing the road. At the intersection with Zhongshan Road, there is a two-lane underpass for traffic on Zhongxiao Road to bypass the intersection.
Keelung Road is a major arterial and highway in Taipei, Taiwan, connecting the Neihu district from the MacAuthur 1st Bridge in the east with the Songshan, Xinyi, and Daan districts towards the southwest, with a connection to Yonghe City via the Fuhe Bridge. Keelung is a very congested route because of its connections to and from Huandong Blvd., Tiding Blvd., Civic Blvd Expressway, Xinhai Road/National Freeway No. 3A, Shuiyuan Expressway, and the Fuhe Bridge, which are all major transportation corridors. There are a series of reversible lanes and bypasses along the corridor to provide traffic relieve within the small right-of-way.
