Hi, thanks for the feedback everyone. Fernando, can you link the specific guidelines you are referring to? In general I don’t imagine we will be making many changes to road classifications. For example, in response to my last email to talk-br, Naoliv said he thought they were already fairly complete and consistent. I believe it will mostly be adding missing roads, fixing alignment and other similar issues.
And thank you Joao for the suggestion, we will take a look at that area.
