Since independence, Armenia has been developing its internal highway network. The "North-South Road Corridor Investment Program" is a major infrastructure project which aims at connecting the southern border of Armenia with its northern by means of a 556&nbsp;km-long Meghri-Yerevan-Bavra highway. It is a major US$1.5 billion infrastructure project funded by the [[Asian Development Bank]], [[European Investment Bank]] and the [[Eurasian Development Bank]]. When completed, the highway will provide access to European countries via the [[Black Sea]]. It could also eventually interconnect the Black Sea ports of Georgia with the major ports of Iran, thus positioning Armenia in a strategic transport corridor between Europe and Asia.<ref name="auto2"/><ref>{{Cite web|url=http://northsouth.am/en|title=Home &#124; North-South Road Program State Non-Commercial Organization|website=northsouth.am}}</ref> Armenia is pursuing further loans from [[China]] as part of the [[Belt and Road Initiative]] to complete the north–south highway.<ref name="auto3"/>

Armenia connects to European road networks via the [[International E-road network]] through various routes such as; [[European route E117]], [[European route E691]], [[European route E001]] and [[European route E60]]. Armenia also connects to the [[Asian Highway Network]] through routes [[AH81]], [[AH82]] and [[AH83]].
