A map database stores data describing a set of connected roadways, each having one or more lanes. A navigation system selects a route for an autonomous vehicle (AV) by identifying a set of candidate lanes for routing the AV in the map database and retrieving at least one parameter of each candidate lane from the map database. The navigation system determines a performance metric for each of the candidate lanes, the performance metric for a given candidate lane based on the retrieved at least one parameter of the given candidate lane. The navigation system selects a candidate lane for routing the AV based at least in part on the determined performance metrics.
