Motorways in Serbia

Motorways in Serbia are called autoput (Serbian Cyrillic:аутопут), a name which simply means auto road.

The system has inherited much from the former Yugoslavia. Pay-tolls (putarine) remain in place and the speed limit is 120 km/h (75 mph).

The highways were originally marked with yellow-colour hard shoulder lines and some of these remain in place, they are, however, slowly being phased out and replaced with white. The motorway roadsigns maintain their green colour background, a feature shared with Switzerland, Italy, Denmark, Sweden, Greece, Lithuania, the Czech Republic, Slovakia and the United States as well as the other former Yugoslav republics. The roads are on the whole straight with good surfacing, and better maintained than the national roads.
