this might sound a dumb question but, as I have always managed to avoid toll roads, can someone confirm if the road from Burgos to Miranda De Ebro is a toll rd? I have used the AA and RAC route planner and both send me along the AP1 despite putting in the 'avoid toll rd' option.
If it is how much is it going to cost my van which is slightly over 7m?
thanks and apologies for the ignorance

AP-1 (Autopista 1) is a toll motorway, as are most (but not all) Autopistas. All are prefixed AP.
It is paralleled by the N-1, which is two lane. (Under Spanish law, where a toll road has been built, and alternative non-toll road must (broadly) parallel it.)
The dual carriageways are designated Autovia (prefix AV) and are not tolled.
Just seen sshortcircuits post and followed the link, as you obviously did. Seems my information was out of date. Apologies. However, with the exception of those listed, it would generally be wise to assume APs to be tolled unless you can confirm them toll free.
