Auckland urban route network



The Auckland urban route network consists of strategic and primary arterial roads across the Auckland Region of New Zealand. Urban routes are signposted with white shields. To avoid conflict with state highway numbering, there are no urban routes numbered 1, 2, 16, 18, 20, or 22.

The same shield may appear elsewhere, but is very scarse and only tends to be used up to once in a region. This "Regional Route" system includes the route UR1 in New Plymouth, the former route K in Tauranga (now SH29), and a couple revoked state highways like the Inland Scenic Route or the northern extent of SH67.

The exception to this is Hamilton which has its own urban route network, but mostly only for main collector roads.
