A similar situation with US 20 in Freeport, IL is tagged trunk, and I'd go with that here as well, though primary is not an incorrect choice. IDOT has been building these staged bypasses for years now; they start out 2 lanes, but with 4 lanes' worth of ROW reserved for future construction of an at-grade expressway (and overpasses sized to match, as you noted). Motorway would be an incorrect choice, in my opinion. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.17 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://www.enigmail.net/ iQIcBAEBAgAGBQJQU9UZAAoJELiB5WubzHR/zO8P/3zncIGMEeQggpw4i25dpmbn 3tAt0pdARLdBjHbjaAOgkay+0Gu0BP4fe6O7Rn18bwwTZ6Ot9j/gJaAa+9Q1hVqj /HPwazwt6OhxsKw5mHKYk35BnZMaCRindYhHsYp2EkOGxD6c3q7w8j9B07L+I7s5 aIEINMynSjoy8hNs8/27BSQTxupsqNRY6/8PY7BBCXT3fUKyvazSBhhjLmAZBti1 il7bBUFAB9/xZDz+HslJJyqAj6AvnhkBXXFctyzTuawy3lfovMqDU90bhYmSoBm4 FsR3IzIC2SDe9Ja9wFYfgue+g9/rrSwBJaEI/Nq8ON3uL3BaNXPLeULLNCFRol9p ns+T51xLyTJWcfQEbUpBwRE+b4BfwN+W/Vh3M/XLtYr0Y7o88QrCDZ/5lwmHaQZn mCzK2TWMZZ1qzAyplaAmc8pY4/sYhsczKh30IWAhssfAew9rtSLip6AoFAZqWjwa Xr4/EcC79PS9eowlr1tgTwczgibiP05rk3Npm7uask23qO/bYxfRvKkNl3S03xF/ btmidRqpDzOpVr6wMT+Z2oL8jz4iRI39uGqLG3lYloe9dnFYV4AzXgmelBnjlX++ H0SncBXrFWfIPlScXQEsrpVOY83zGieTPEhXDgu1TO3Z/yogDHrAP2sKnbeTv3x6 lIQTmv/U1zslxMG4MGGm =3HaL -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Talk-us mailing list Talk-us@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-us
