Carretera Federal 85D is the designation for toll highways (autopistas) paralleling Federal Highway 85. Two roads are designated Highway 85D, one from Nuevo Laredo, Tamaulipas, to Monterrey, Nuevo León, known as Autopista Monterrey–Nuevo Laredo, and the other from Pachuca, Hidalgo, to Mexico City, known as Autopista Pachuca–Ciudad de México. Both toll routes run parallel to their free alternative, Federal Highway 85. Highway 85D has wider lanes offers a more direct route and is continuously being repaired and repaved unlike the free route.[http://aplicaciones4.sct.gob.mx/sibuac_internet/ControllerUI?action=CmdTarifaRep1&countVias=119&radioTipoIva=2&radioSel=1&selectVia=193&selectVia=196&selectVia=1&selectVia=4&selectVia=5&selectVia=19&selectVia=7&selectVia=9&selectVia=10&selectVia=12&selectVia=13&selectVia=14&selectVia=16&selectVia=115&selectVia=18&selectVia=20&selectVia=21&selectVia=22&selectVia=23&selectVia=118&selectVia=8&selectVia=195&selectVia=25&selectVia=26&selectVia=27&selectVia=28&selectVia=29&selectVia=30&selectVia=6&selectVia=32&selectVia=114&selectVia=33&selectVia=35&selectVia=36&selectVia=37&selectVia=176&selectVia=199&selectVia=39&selectVia=48&selectVia=40&selectVia=202&selectVia=42&selectVia=43&selectVia=45&selectVia=49&selectVia=51&selectVia=52&selectVia=54&selectVia=55&selectVia=56&selectVia=57&selectVia=58&selectVia=59&selectVia=203&selectVia=60&selectVia=61&selectVia=62&selectVia=192&selectVia=65&selectVia=66&selectVia=67&selectVia=68&selectVia=64&selectVia=69&selectVia=70&selectVia=72&selectVia=73&selectVia=74&selectVia=75&selectVia=76&selectVia=77&selectVia=78&selectVia=79&selectVia=198&selectVia=80&selectVia=81&selectVia=162&selectVia=83&selectVia=84&selectVia=85&selectVia=87&selectVia=86&selectVia=88&selectVia=90&selectVia=91&selectVia=89&selectVia=92&selectVia=93&selectVia=94&selectVia=95&selectVia=96&selectVia=97&selectVia=98&selectVia=99&selectVia=100&selectVia=101&selectVia=102&selectVia=103&selectVia=104&selectVia=106&selectVia=107&selectVia=31&selectVia=109&selectVia=110&selectVia=50&selectVia=194&selectVia=180&selectVia=111&selectVia=112&selectVia=200&selectVia=119&selectVia=204&selectVia=117&selectVia=120&selectVia=121&selectVia=122&selectVia=123&selectVia=124&selectVia=125 Mexican Autopistas technical information and tolls]
