Roads in Botswana

Botswana has a network of roads, of varied quality and capacity, totaling about 31,747 kilometres (19,727 mi).

[2] Responsibility for the road network differs between trunk and non-trunk routes.

Some B roads are wide enough to accommodate bidirectional traffic, while others are narrower with various passing locations.

All length distances are shown in kilometers, speed is in kilometers per hour whilst height and width restrictions are required to be shown in feet and inches (though the metric measurements may optionally also appear).

In the early 2010s, officials announced plans to begin phasing out the distinctive blue signs in favor of more typical signs in order to be more in line with the neighboring Southern African Development Community member states.
