The six [[List of motorways in Luxembourg|Luxembourg motorways]] cover a total distance of {{Cvt|165|km}}, linking the capital with [[Trier]] (Germany), [[Thionville]] (France) and [[Arlon]] (Belgium) as well as with [[Esch-sur-Alzette]] and [[Ettelbruck]] in Luxembourg. Luxembourg's motorways are toll free. The speed limit is normally {{Cvt|130|km/h}}, {{Cvt|110|km/h}} in rainy weather. With {{Cvt|56.8|km}} of motorway per {{Cvt|1000|km2}}, Luxembourg probably now has the highest density of motorways in [[Europe]].<ref>[http://www.autostrade.it/en/studi/dossier3.html Autostrade in Europe - Data updated to 1 January 2003] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080825005204/http://www.autostrade.it/en/studi/dossier3.html |date=25 August 2008 }}.

Luxembourg City is a major business and financial center. Many workers prefer to live in the three neighboring countries and drive to work each day. This creates huge traffic jams during peak commuting hours. Tailbacks on the E411 motorway can extend five or more kilometers into Belgium and can take an hour or more to navigate.

The remaining road network in Luxembourg accounts for a total length of {{Cvt|2730|km}}, consisting of {{Cvt|839|km}} of trunk roads (RN or ''routes nationales'') and {{Cvt|1891|km}} of secondary roads (CR or ''chemins repris'').<ref>{{Cite web|title=Routes nationales et Chemins Repris|url=http://travaux.public.lu/fr/reseau-routier/routes.html|access-date=2021-01-04|website=travaux.public.lu|language=fr}}</ref>
