Vocab question no. 10 - railway, roadway, highway (singular/plural)

Dear All,

We all know that highways, expressways, local roads, subway lines, railways are all part of transport infrastructure. Yet, what leaves me a bit perplexed is whether we should refer to them in the singular or plural form.

Thanks

Well, do you want to refer, for example, to one local road or to more than one? What is an example of a sentence that perplexes you?
