In other words, if the British planners were deciding where to place the green-signed "A" roads in Antarctica, those are the roads that should be trunk. I will note my usual example of the British "A9" road in northern Scotland which is a narrow, two-lane road without even so much as a bit of paint to separate the two lanes of opposing traffic. https://maps.app.goo.gl/vohyngVPjBhUVsZLA Taking Scotland down a notch to Antarctica, the most significant ice road may well meet the test of "the most important roads that aren't motorways".
