The idea behind toll roads is that you pay to use a section of a motorway, with the money raised going to the local government to help pay for its upkeep. Portugal toll roads are a little more confusing than most due to the fact they are largely electronic. There are numerous toll roads crisscrossing the country, however the major ones as you can see in Portugal toll roads map include: A1 between Lisbon and Porto, A28 between Porto and Valença, A22 between Faro and Portimao, A2 between Lisbon and Algarve. Unlike some toll roads where you will come across booths every so often where you can pay for using the route, electronic toll roads allow you to pay for how far you have driven after you’ve completed your journey.
