  • Kehä 0 (Ring 0), a conceptual approach to routing traffic away from the very centre of the city, to develop greater pedestrian access areas in the centre, the so-called "carless centre". Though this is the least legitimate in the sense of what is commonly thought as a ring road, merely consisting of ways to route traffic, it differs from the other ring roads in that it would consist of a fully circular network of routes around a focal point, rather than I, II and III, which are properly only semicircular, being as they are, limited by the sea on one side.
  • Hakamäentie, by-passes inner city. The central part is built, remaining parts uniting Turku motorway with E75
  • Kehä I (Ring 1), encircling Helsinki while also passing through Espoo, for local traffic
  • Kehä II (Ring 2), traffic loadout highway through Espoo, for local traffic (Kehä II is not an actual ring road but only a stub – the complete ring is not yet even planned)
  • Kehä III (Ring 3), bypass of Helsinki, part of E18, encircling Helsinki through Vantaa, Espoo and Kirkkonummi, for local traffic and long-distance traffic[2]
  • Turun kehätie (Turku Ring Road), encircling city of Turku and bypasses through Turku, Raisio, Lieto and Kaarina.
  • Tampere Ring Road, encircling city of Tampere and bypasses Tampere, Pirkkala, Nokia and Ylöjärvi.

Athens is encircled by the system of Attiki Odos motorway with three main avenues, forming a Π around the Athens Basin. To the northern side, the main section (number 6) connecting Elefsina shipyards-industrial zone with the Athens International Airport in Spata and counts about 50 km. To the western side, Aigaleo Avenue, encircling Mount Aigaleo and to the eastern side, the Hymettus Ring. As supplementary avenues there are also NATO Avenue, running across the Elefsina Basin next to Mount Aigaleo, Katehaki Avenue, connecting NE (Papagou) and SE (Ilioupoli) suburbs of Athens aligned with Mount Hymettus and finally Varis-Koropiou Avenue, connecting the vicinity of Athens International Airport and the SE coast of Athens, near the suburb of Voula, in the back side of Mount Hymettus. To the south side (coast), Poseidonos Avenue (Or "Paraliaki (Παραλιακή): Greek for "Coastal (Road)") runs from Piraeus (Faliro Interchange) to Voula, aligned with the coast, until it meets Varis-Koropiou and then it continues to the countryside Sounio Avenue, towards Sounio and Lavrio.

The quality of the encircling system varies from motorway of high standards and fully computerised control and service (northern section of Attiki Odos) to more simple two-lanes avenue, like Aigaleo Avenue. Most of the system, maybe except the mountainous parts (Aigaleo, Katehaki and Hymettus Ring), is a high-speed traffic system of roads. Usually the most speedy traffic is noticed on the coastal Poseidonos Avenue, thus making it need increased attention.

  • Route 1, which circles the entire country

Ireland

All ring roads listed are not arranged from previously existing roads.

Dublin has three generations of partial ring roads. Due to its location on the sea, there is no complete ring road as yet. with the combined South Circular Road and North Circular Road forming the oldest, and inner pair dating from the 19th century.

The M50 motorway forms the middle, most complete and most heavily trafficked (85k-90k cars/day) ring road with an eventual plan to form a complete ring via an undersea tunnel or bridge.

The Outer Ring Road forms the newest partial ring, running along the west of the cities outer suburbs. Eventual plans are to link it to sections of the R121 road which provides a similar service in the north west of the city, with land being reserved for this.

In addition, Dublin City Council has signed two "orbital routes" consisting of existing roads, but following these requires turning at many junctions.

Russia

edit

Moscow, Russia has three beltways:

  • MKAD — Moscow Ring Road, which follows city borders, is approximately 109 kilometres (68 mi)
  • Moscow Small Ring Road — road A107, about 25 kilometres (16 mi) off MKAD, length is about 320 kilometres (200 mi)
  • Moscow Big Ring Road — road A108, about 80 kilometres (50 mi) off MKAD, length is about 550 kilometres (340 mi)

Moscow Central Ring Road is a planned road which will consist of parts of Moscow Small Ring and Moscow Big Ring. Planned length is about 442 kilometres (275 mi), it will be opened in 2015.

Inside the Moscow city limits there are three ring roads: the central Boulevard Ring, which is generally two lanes each way with narrow tree-lined parks between the carriage ways; the Garden Ring, which has at least four lanes each way and no gardens; and the Third Ring Road, which was constructed in the late 1990s and early 2000s and combined existing roads and new highways. A fourth ring, between the Third Ring and the MKAD, is planned.

Spain

edit
The system of ring roads in the Spanish region of Madrid.

Madrid, Spain is served by three beltways:

  • M-30, which at a mean distance of 5.17 kilometres (3.21 mi) to the Puerta del Sol has been overtaken by the city in most of its 32.5 kilometres (20.2 mi) length.
  • M-40, which borders Madrid at a mean distance of 10.07 kilometres (6.26 mi), with connections to the southern metropolitan towns and projects westwards to reach Pozuelo de Alarcón for a total length of 63.5 kilometres (39.5 mi).
  • M-50, which was planned as a full ring but is not "closed" as of 2008, though projects by the Autonomous Community of Madrid to connect both ends through a tunnel are being aired. It is 85 kilometres (53 mi) long and services mainly the metropolitan area at a mean distance of 13.5 kilometres (8.4 mi).

Also, the half-loop M45 runs between the M40 and the M50 at the east, where the two beltways are more separated; and there are plans to build a fourth full loop, the M60, which would be over 120 kilometres (75 mi) long and encompass the whole metropolitan area of Madrid. This proliferation of orbital motorways is partially due to the traditional high radiality of the Spanish highway network, which routed most cross-country traffic through Madrid.

Other Spanish beltways include:

Sweden

edit
  • Stockholm Ring Road (half-completed, eastern section under feasibility study)
  • Malmö Inner Ring Road
  • Malmö Outer Ring Road
  • Linköping Inner Ring (C-ring) and Outer Ring (Y-ring)

  • Second Great Beltway – currently under construction.

  • Circuito Interior, Mexico City. The inner beltway inside Mexico City proper.
  • Libramiento Arco Norte a toll road partly under construction being built around Mexico City.
  • Periférico Manuel Gómez Morín, Guadalajara, Jalisco. The ring has a gap: it starts at the Federal Highway 44, circles around the city as a 3+3 lane highway, becomes a 2+2 lane road in the Tonalá municipality, and ends abruptly in the Federal Highway 90.
  • Macrolibramiento, Guadalajara, Jalisco. An outer beltway that bypasses the city from the Zapotlanejo expressway to the Tepic expressway with the goal of relieving the current beltway from its heavy cargo traffic.
  • Anillo Interno 210, Monterrey, Nuevo León. The beltway is almost a complete 3+3 lane highway. In clockwise it starts in the intersection with Avenida Constitución and continues until Avenida Gonzalitos – Fidel Velazquez, then Avenida Nogalar, Avenida Los Angeles, until the intersection Churubusco – Avenida Constitución. The beltway is a complete freeway except for the part from Avenida Los Angeles – Churubusco until Avenida Constitución (east part of the Beltway).
  • Periférico Ecológico, Puebla, Puebla. An incomplete ringroad which passes through most of the municipalities that conform the Metropolitan Area of Puebla.
  • Tijuana-Rosarito Autopista, Tijuana, Baja California. Currently under construction, it will form a bypass around Tijuana connecting Federal Highway 2 to Federal Highway 1 in Ensenada.
