<p>As per Table 1-6 of National Transportation Statistics, at the end of 2013 the U.S. had 8,656,070 estimated roadway lane miles excluding National Park and Forest roads. Of this amount 2,640,861 miles or 30.5 per cent were ubran and 6,015,209 or 69.5 per cent were rural.</p> <p>Just 2.5 per cent of the lane miles were part of the Interstate Highway System, although to hear some folks tell it, interstate highways dominate the country's road system. </p> <p>At the end of 2013 the Interstate Highway System had 219,797 lane miles combining into 47,856 miles of highway. </p> <p>The Interstate Highway System does not contain the only expressway miles in the U.S. For example, TX130, which runs from Georgetown to Seguin Texas, is not part of the interstate system, but it is definitely expressway. The speed limits vary from 80 mph to 85 mph. </p> <p> </p>
