Road network expenditure of around 1 billion euro is paid with vehicle and fuel taxes that amount to around 1.5 billion euro and 1 billion euro as you can see in Finland roads map. The main international passenger gateway is Helsinki-Vantaa Airport with over 13 million passengers in 2007. About 25 airports have scheduled passenger services. They are financed by competitive fees and rural airport may be subsidized. The Helsinki-Vantaa based Finnair (known for an Asia-focused strategy), Blue1 and Finncomm Airlines provide air services both domestically and internationally. Helsinki has an optimal location for great circle routes between Western Europe and the Far East. Hence, many international travelers visit Helsinki on a stop-over between Asia and Europe. The total length of the road network in Finland was approximately 78 thousand kilometers in 2019. Roughly 13.5 thousand kilometers of roads in Finland belonged to the secondary or regional roads classification, followed by 12.5 thousand kilometers of main or national roads. The length of motorways was 926 kilometers at the end of 2019.

Road transport in Finland is the most popular method of transportation, particularly in rural areas where the railway network does not extend to. As of 2011 there are 78,162 kilometres (48,568 mi) of public roads, of which 51,016 kilometres (31,700 mi) are paved:42. The main road network comprises over 13,329 kilometres (8,282 mi) of road. 64% of all traffic on public roads takes place on main roads:11 which are divided into class I (valtatie/riksväg) and class II (kantatie/stamväg) main roads as its shown in Finland roads map. Motorways have been constructed in the country since the 1960s, but they are still reasonably rare because traffic volumes are not large enough to motivate their construction. There are 779 kilometres (484 mi) of motorways.:23 Longest stretches are Helsinki–Turku (Main road 1/E18), Helsinki–Tampere (Main road 3/E12), Helsinki–Heinola (Main road 4/E75), and Helsinki–Porvoo (Main road 7/E18). The world northernmost motorway is also located in Finland between Keminmaa and Tornio (Main road 29/E8).

The Finnish road network is approximately 454,000 kilometres long in total. This includes around 350,000 kilometres of private and forest roads and 26,000 kilometres of municipal streets. The Finnish Transport Infrastructure Agency is responsible for approximately 78,000 kilometres of highways as its mentioned in Finland roads map. Of this, main roads (Class I and Class II) comprise more than 13,000 kilometres, including some 900 kilometres of motorway. The majority, 64,900 kilometres, are regional and connecting roads. However, these represent just over a third of all traffic. There are slightly over 5,000 kilometres of pedestrian and bicycle paths. Approximately 65% of highways, or some 50,000 kilometres, are paved. With respect to highway sections with low traffic volumes, approximately 41,000 kilometres are in the lowest maintenance category, i.e. more than half of the total highway network. It is impossible to maintain all roads in such condition that, during the most challenging weather conditions, no problems will occur anywhere on the road network.

Highways in Finland (Finnish: valtatiet; Swedish: riksvägar) are all paved and have at least two lanes; further, they are better maintained than main and regional roads. Historically they were labelled as causeways. Highways numbered from 1 to 7 radiate from the capital Helsinki (Highways 2, 5 and 6 diverge from 1, 4 and 7, respectively), while highways 8 to 10 radiate from Turku on the south-western coast of Finland. Highways 11 and 12 originate in Tampere. The rest of the highways start from other major cities as you can see in Finland highway map. Sections of highways between major cities have often been upgraded to motorways, for example between Helsinki and Tampere. Since Finland is a large and sparsely populated country, there is no reason upgrade all highways to motorways.

The principal shareholder in the E18 Hamina to Vaalimaa motorway project, Meridiam has continued its involvement in the upgrading of Finland infrastructure. This was the second public private partnership Meridiam has formed with the Finland Transport Agency (FTA). It consists of the major reconstruction and upgrade of Finland historical Route 7 highway to motorway standard as its shown in Finland highway map. The road is a vital transport corridor for Finland, going from Turku in the west to Helsinki and the Russian border at Vaalimaa. Hamina to Vaalimaa was the last section to be upgraded to motorway standard, giving an economic boost to Finland southern cities and the wider European trade and commerce. The E18 is part of the Trans-European Network connecting Helsinki and Scandinavia to St Petersburg.

A Skanska Infrastructure Development-led consortium developed and now operates the 51.3 km E18 highway between Muurla and Lohjanharju in southern Finland. The road opened for traffic in January 2009 and completes a continuous motorway link between Turku and Helsinki as its mentioned in Finland highway map. The new highway has improved safety and traffic flow by replacing the existing narrow, curving two-lane road, reducing accidents and shortening journey times. The E18 is known as "the wilderness motorway" because it runs through an area rich in wildlife. An environmentally sustainable approach to the development was particularly important to minimise disruption. Multilevel interchanges, separated lanes, animal fences and contouring also improve safety. The new road includes seven tunnels equipped with modern traffic control and emergency systems.
