I drove across the N60e near Peruwelz [1] which has a autoweg (route

What is the best option here? 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.

Small as in short? I agree. 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.

Regards,
Maarten
