Zhihu netizen replied:
National highways and provincial highways are the division of highway functions, and national highways refer to national trunk highways and provincial trunk highways. The expressway refers to the road grade, which corresponds to the first-class highway and the second-class highway. So there is no necessary connection between them, even if they are two different objects, let alone the difference.
National highways are named with three digits beginning with G, such as G107 and G312, which are National Highway 107 and National Highway 312.
The first of these two national highways is along the Beijing-Hong Kong-Macao Expressway, and the second is along the Lianhuo Expressway. The label of Beijing-Hong Kong-Macao Expressway is G4, and that of Lianhuo Expressway is G30. Due to the nonstandard naming of provincial highways, it is generally impossible to distinguish provincial highways from provincial highways. However, according to the standard, provincial highways and national highways should have three digits, but some areas still have two digits, which may conflict with some provincial highways. Generally speaking, the three-digit numbers, G and S, begin with general highways, which are national highways and provincial highways. The rest of the numbers starting with G and S, one, two and four digits, are highway labels.
Although it can’t be absolutely judged from the name, it is not a problem during driving. On road signs, everything with a green background is an expressway, everything with a red background is a national road, and everything with a yellow background is a provincial road, and there are black characters on a white background, which is a county road.
The green background is expressway and the yellow background is provincial highway:
The yellow background is provincial highway and the red background is national highway:
