Historic Parkways
Before the creation of FS highways and the PS state route system, the Stover County Parkway was known as "15th Avenue" due to its position along the grid in Midtown Madawan. When the PS state route system was created, they paid homage to the moniker of "15th Avenue" by creating the alignment of PS-15 along the Stover County Parkway and continuing into the Beveronto County Parkway.
Expressways
Madawan Colorways
Within the counties of Beveronto, Kennetall, and Stover, Madawan constructed several toll roads to alleviate traffic to the most popular sections. These roads are all open-road tolling and accessed via the Mass-Pass, the Massodeya Valley's transponder for toll roads. Currently, the only toll roads constructed are the Greenway from Gardenton to the Port of Madawan and the Redway from Molson City to Erickson.
Turnpike(s)
The only fully constructed turnpike in the Madawan is the Beveronto Turnpike from Uptown Madawan to near Saint Brookings. However, Madawan has proposed other routes for future turnpikes, such as upgrading the Stover County Parkway to provide better access to the River Gardens and Government Square.
