List of World record highways

A highway is a public road with two or more lanes per direction, and have dual carriageways (divided highway), limited access and have grade-separated junctions.

The first highway paved with portland cement, or concrete, is built near Pine Bluff, Arkansas, 22 years after Bellefontaine, Ohio, first paved its Main Street with concrete. Invented in 1824 by British stone mason Joseph Aspdin from a mix of calcium, silicon, aluminum, and iron minerals, portland cement is so-named because of its similarity to the stone quarried on the Isle of Portland off the English coast.
The world’s first limited access road was constructed in Italy in 1922.

Wow... Los Angeles didn't come number 1 in any category. What about the highest number of integrated freeways - for example, the Interstate 5, Interstate 10, Highway 101, and California 60 Interchange?

I loved this article. I thought the FDR in NYC or 405 or 101 in LA would be the world's busiest.
