The evolution of motorways construction in European Union member states by total number of kilometres existing in that year. This is a list of the total number of motorways by country, member of the European Union. It includes motorways (controlled-access highways), classified as such by the Eurostat.

This list is incomplete; you can help by adding missing items. (August 2008)

Note: Due to the new European standards in 2011 some European countries had their total number of motorways diminished, examples being Lithuania from 417 km to 309 km, or Estonia 115 km to 0. They became either dual carriageways or national highways.
