===Roads and expressways=== Some roads and bridges, such as [[Three Principles of the People|Minquan]] Gate and [[Beiyang]] Road, have retained names given to them while the [[Republic of China (1912–1949)|Republic of China]] (1912–1949) was in power. As in other cities in China, some roads in Tianjin are named after Chinese provinces and cities. Unlike Beijing, Tianjin has few roads that run parallel to the four [[cardinal direction]]s. Tianjin has three ring roads. The Inner and Middle Ring Roads are not closed, traffic-controlled roadways and some often have traffic light intersections. The Outer Ring Road is similar to a highway-level ring road. The road experiences traffic. * [[Inner Ring Road (Tianjin)|Inner Ring Road ''(neihuan)'']] * [[Middle Ring Road (Tianjin)|Middle Ring Road ''(zhonghuan)'']] * [[Outer Ring Road (Tianjin)|Outer Ring Road ''(waihuan)'']] Tianjin's roads often finish in ''dao'' ({{lang-zh|s=道|l=avenue|links=no}}) and ''xian'' ({{lang-zh|s=线|t=線|l=line|links=no}}). These suffixes are most often used for highways and [[through route]]s. The terms ''lu'' ({{lang-zh|s=路|l=road|links=no}}) and j''ie'' ({{lang-zh|s=街|l=street|links=no}}) are not generally used. As Tianjin's roads are tend to not be in cardinal directions, ''jing'' ({{lang-zh|s=经|t=經|l=avenue|links=no}}) roads and ''wei'' ({{lang-zh|s=纬|t=緯|l=avenue|links=no}}) roads appear; these roads attempt to run more directly north–south and east–west, respectively. The following seven [[expressways of China]] run in or through Tianjin: * [[Jingjintang Expressway]] (travels from Beijing, through Tianjin's urban area, to [[Tanggu District]] / [[Tianjin Economic Development Area|TEDA]]) * [[Jinghu Expressway]] (travels from Jinjing Gonglu Bridge to Shanghai; similarly to [[Jingjintang Expressway]], this expressway travels from Beijing to Shanghai) * [[Beijing−Shenyang Expressway|Jingshen Expressway]] (travels through [[Baodi District]] on its way from Beijing to [[Shenyang]]) * [[Tangjin Expressway]] (travels from [[Tanggu District]], Tianjin, to [[Tangshan]], Hebei''—''known as the Jintang Expressway in Tianjin) * [[Baojin Expressway]] (travels from [[Beichen District]], Tianjin, to [[Baoding]], Hebei''—''known as the Jinbao Expressway in Tianjin) * [[Jinbin Expressway]] (travels from Zhangguizhuang Bridge to Hujiayuan Bridge; both bridges are in Tianjin) * [[Jinji Expressway]] (travels from central Tianjin to [[Jixian County]]) The following six [[China National Highway]]s pass through Tianjin: * [[China National Highway 102]] (travels through [[Ji County, Tianjin]] on its way from Beijing to [[Harbin]] * [[China National Highway 103]] (travels from Beijing, through Tianjin's urban area, to [[Tanggu District]]) * [[China National Highway 104]] (travels from Beijing, through Tianjin Municipality, to [[Fuzhou]]) * [[China National Highway 105]] (travels from Beijing, through Tianjin Municipality, to [[Macau]]) * [[China National Highway 112]] (a circular highway around Beijing; passes through Tianjin Municipality) * [[China National Highway 205]] (travels from [[Shanhaiguan District|Shanhaiguan]], Hebei, through Tianjin Municipality, to [[Guangzhou]])
