[OSM-talk-be] Trunk road?
I drove across the N60e near Peruwelz [1] which has a autoweg (route pour automobile) sign. According to the wiki [2] this should be mapped as trunk. Currently it is a secondary road. What is the best option here? Make it trunk or add a motorway=yes tag?

Make it trunk or add a motorway=yes tag? autoweg is in principle tagged as motorroad=yes. The highway=trunk is for all express roads where pedestrians/cyclists/mopeds aren't allowed, on the condition that it's not just for a single bridge or tunnel. So, should the N60e be mapped as trunk? I'm not sure, I don't know that road, it seems a bit small for it to be tagged as a trunk road. But if you think it makes sense, map it as trunk, but the motorroad=yes should nevertheless be enough for routers.

It is short and leads from nothing to nowhere and especially does not connect two major roads directly. But the road itself would suit that tag. It is a wide road and would even satisfy german Kraftfahrstrasse regulations. Very un-belgian if I may say so, and it certainly looks out of place there. Even though, I am hesitant to tag it as trunk. I'll add the motorroad=yes tag and see how it evolves.
