Paso Robles is at the major ground transportation crossroads of U.S. Highway 101 and State Highway 46 East, halfway between Los Angeles and the San Francisco Bay Area with direct eastbound access to the San Joaquin Valley and Interstate 5. Paso Robles is currently serviced by 1 freeway and 2 highways:

• U.S. Route 101, is the most frequented and largest road-transportation arterial for the city of Paso Robles and serves as its North-South Gateway. US-101 runs in a North-South direction and bisects the city (along with the Salinas River), into the western and eastern portions of the city. Traveling northward from the city, US-101 North runs up to San Jose, San Francisco, and continues on along the coast up through Northern California, Oregon, and finally ends near Olympia in Washington state. Traveling southward from the city, US-101 South heads down to San Luis Obispo, Santa Barbara, and on to Los Angeles where its south terminus is.
• State Route 46, is the main east-west arterial for the city of Paso Robles and serves as its eastern gateway from the San Joaquin Valley. CA-46 runs in an East-West direction except for a short portion in Paso Robles where it runs North-West, merged with US-101 for 3 miles (4.8 km). Traveling westward, CA-46 West leaves the city and gradually climbs up and over the Santa Lucia Coastal Range, where it then quickly descends and meets the Pacific Ocean, just south of the coastal village of Cambria at its westernmost terminus when it meets Highway 1, better known as the Pacific Coast Highway. Traveling eastward, CA-46 East leaves the city and after traveling through rolling countryside for about 25 miles (40 km), it climbs up the Temblor Range and San Andreas Fault, then 25 miles (40 km) later, crosses Interstate 5 and continues on, later meeting and terminating at State Route 99, about 15 miles (24 km) north of Bakersfield and about 90 miles (140 km) south of Fresno.
• State Route 229, is mainly an inter-county route that is used for traveling between the small rural towns in the eastern part of the county. SR-229 begins in Paso Robles as “Creston Road”, then 3 miles (4.8 km) east, as it leaves the city heading south-eastward, turns into SR-229 as it heads to the small rural town of Crestonabout 15 miles (24 km) southeast of Paso Robles. It then continues on heading southward for 8 miles (13 km), where it ends as it meets State Route 58, about 5 miles (8.0 km) east of the small town of Santa Margarita.
