Road Designation - Use of Letters

Use of Letters

The use of letters allow to create a distinct designation from the road name or the road number. The way this letter is attached to its roadnumber is dependant on the country where the road lies in. For instance, among A1 motorways, the one in Spain has a minus sign between the A and the 1 (Autovia A-1) while in Germany the Autobahn 1 is written A 1, with a space between the A and the 1. In Argentina there is a number of zeros between the A and the 1 (Autopista A001).

Famous quotes containing the word letters:

    In one instance, we understood that a woman was the post- mistress, and they said that she made the best one on the road; but we suspected that the letters must be subjected to a very close scrutiny there.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
