The road network of Mercury is the system of roads in Mercury and its territories. Roads are classified according to capacity and purpose, and the rules governing each classification of road vary between types. Drivers of motor vehicles are required to gain a driving licence in order to use the road network.
Classification of roads
Mercury has five classifications of roads, each with differing rules governing their use. A network of "expressways" spans the nation as a whole, being connected to towns and cities via smaller "dual carriageways" and "carriageways". Within towns and cities, the main routes are classified as "byways" while other roads are deemed as "access roads".
