Map of the Swiss autobahn network. The Swiss autobahn/autoroute network has a total length (as of April 2012) of 1,763.6 kilometres (1,095.9 miles), of the planned 1,893.5 kilometres (1,176.6 miles), and has, by an area of 41,290 km 2, also one of the highest motorway densities in the world with many tunnels.
