I've done similar stuff, just for railways.

If it were my highway system, I'd use a number-by-islands thing. Since the system is broken into parts, I'd apply the first digit to tell what island it's on; then I'd use the second number to identify the particular segment. Thataways, I-45 is the 5th road on the 4th Island. Just my two cents!
That would be a realy good system. And you could identify the road's direction by using odd numbers for north-south and even numbers for east-west as we use it in Germany

Mine is set up like the American interstate system. That's all the thought that was put into it.

Besides, most of the complicated road systems are on the two larger islands... so that would mean that one set of 10 numbers would only be used on each of those islands. All of the other islands generally only have one interstate highway on them so there's really no reason to differentiate like that.
