Highway D1 (Czech: Dálnice D1) is the main highway of the Czech Republic. As of 2005, it is 247 km long; an additional 130 km is in the planning or construction stages. The highway begins in Prague and continues on to Brno and Vyškov. The newest segment (from Vrchoslavice to Vyškov) opened in October 2005. Eventually, the highway will continue on to Ostrava and into Poland, where it will merge with motorway A1.

The segment from Lipník nad Bečvou to Ostrava is being constructed (due to historical reasons) as Highway D47, but it will open as part of Highway D1.
