Thislist of roads in Metro Manila summarizes the major thoroughfares and the numbering system currently being implemented inMetro Manila,Philippines.
Metro Manila's major road network comprises sixcircumferential roads and tenradial roads connecting the cities ofCaloocan,Las Piñas,Makati,Malabon,Mandaluyong,Manila,Marikina,Muntinlupa,Navotas,Parañaque,Pasay,Pasig,Quezon City,San Juan,Taguig, andValenzuela, and the municipality ofPateros.[1][2]
This list only covers roads that are listed on theDepartment of Public Works and Highways's Infrastructure Atlas, as well as the previous circumferential and radial road system prior to 2014, and other notable roads in the metro. These road classifications are defined as follows:
Both primary and secondary roads may be designated asbypass or diversion roads, which divert through traffic away from city or municipal business centers with affirmative feasibility studies, or roads that would connect or fill the gap between adjoining national roads.[3]
Any roads not classified as national primary, national secondary, or national tertiary may be classified as follows:
Additional classifications are unclassified roads, road not yet given official classification, and private roads, roads that are maintained by private entities and may have access restrictions.[3]

The first road numbering system in the Philippines was adapted in 1940 by the administration of PresidentManuel Quezon, and was very much similar to U.S. Highway numbering system. Portions of it are 70 roads labeled Highway 1 to Highway 60. Some parts of the numbering system areAdmiral Dewey Boulevard (Highway 1),Calle Manila (Highway 50) and19 de Junio (Highway 54).
In 1945, the Metropolitan Thoroughfare Plan was submitted by Quezon City planners Louis Croft and Antonio Kayanan which proposed the laying of 10 radial roads, which purposes in conveying traffic in and out of the city of Manila to the surrounding cities and provinces, and the completion of six Circumferential Roads, that will act asbeltways of the city, forming altogether a web-likearterial road system.[4][5] TheDepartment of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) is the government agency that deals with these projects.
The road numbering for radial roads are R-1 up to R-10. The radial roads never intersect one another and they do not intersect circumferential roads twice; hence they continue straight routes leading out from the city of Manila to the provinces. The numbering is arranged in a counter-clockwise pattern, wherein the southernmost is R-1 and the northernmost is R-10. Circumferential roads are numbered C-1 to C-6, the innermost beltway is C-1, while the outermost is C-6.
There are ten radial roads that serves the purpose of conveying traffic in and out of the city of Manila to the surrounding cities of the metropolis and to the provinces, numbered in a counter clockwise pattern.[6] All radial roads starts atKilometer Zero, demarked by amarble marker across from theRizal Monument inRizal Park alongRoxas Boulevard.[7][8]

The radial and circumferential road numbers are being supplanted by a new highway number system, which the Department of Public Works and Highways have laid out in 2014. The new system classifies the national roads or highways as national primary roads, national secondary roads, and national tertiary roads. Primary national roads are numbered with one to two-digit numbers. Secondary national roads are assigned three-digit numbers, with the first digit being the number of the principal national road of the region. Secondary national roads around Manila mostly connect to N1 and are numbered with 100-series numbers.
Expressways are assigned with numbers with an E prefix to avoid confusion with numbered national roads. The network consists ofcontrolled-access highways andlimited-access roads, with crossing traffic limited to overpasses, underpasses, and interchanges. Some existing expressways serving Metro Manila also form part of the latter's arterial road network (see the listabove).
| Expressway route | Image | Route | Component tollways | Length | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Quezon City–Rosario(La Union) | 226 km (140 mi) | Part of R-8 | |||

Mabuhay Lanes are a network of roads inMetro Manila designated as priority traffic corridors, serving as alternate routes to the existingradial and circumferential road system of Metro Manila.
It was established in 2010 by theMetropolitan Manila Development Authority (MMDA) under chairmanFrancis Tolentino and Metro Manila Council through the issuance of MMDA Resolution No. 10-26 series of 2010, which designated six north-south routes parallel to the heavily congested EDSA asChristmas Lanes andMabuhay Lanes. These routes were eventually expanded to 17 routes and retained permanently.[30][31] As priority corridors, the segments of all roads designated as Mabuhay Lanes or Christmas Lanes are marked asno parking zones, nostreet vending zones, and noChristmas caroling zones. These segments are also subject to routine MMDA patrols that conductvehicle impoundment viatowing and clearing of other road and sidewalk obstacles.[31]
