Ground work is the only sure way to find what's really there with the roads.2009/8/26 Peter Miller <peter.mil...@itoworld.com>:On 26 Aug 2009, at 10:08, Chris Hill wrote:The orange (maybe brownish) roads can be secondary, tertiary or unclassified. I've compared the NPE roads to some roads that I know well and they cover what I would say are secondary, tertiary or unclassified. Secondary have reference numbers.I guess its back to the beer method.... I can find about 9 roads in Gravesend alone that I think ought to be re-classified on OSM I need to do some ground work before going ahead, as I'm sure some of them have (or should have) B numbers I just tag what I find - I can't second-guess the planners :-)Its becoming to feel like Highways have given up handing out new roads numbers (and removing old unnecessary ones) >From what I can work out the Use of Green Signs on A roads has nothing to do with classification and more to do with who put it up and who maintains the road. (Highways or Local Council) A similar line being used with B Roads. I mean if you look at the A2 it looks and feels like a Motor Way (Hard Shoulder, Slipways, 70MPH) all the way till Wilmington it just happens that Tractors and Learners are aloud to use it (I would not advise it however). Many bits of the M2 beyond Gillingham are actually smaller (Only two lanes). E-routes get marked with a relation, so ref=M20, and add the road to the E15 relation: http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/relation/103222Oh and the Blackwall Tunnel is the A102(M) so needs a reclassification as well (By the other set of rules), Which is just plain silly Peter. Oh and what do I do about the fact that the M20 is also the E15 Cheers, Chris |
