It intersects with a major road atonly one end.
After the discussion, I'm sticking with my
original primary road code. Maybe some day they
will finish it, but right now it's most just a
two-lane highway. We'll see if the next iteration
of Bing photos shows that they are working on it
again. At this point, they don't seem to be
doing anything to finish the work that was started.

In two spots in a 25-mile stretch,
intersections have been turned into cloverleafs
and the highway divided. In other locations,
roads that used to intersect US 50 have been
turned into overpasses. There are even a couple
of bridges for a second lane but no evidence of
any construction work actually to build that
lane. The vast majority of the highway is still two-lane blacktop.

a primary road that just has a couple of cloverleafs?
Probably. Without looking at aerial
photography, I'd say it sounds like a super-2,
or at least a two-lane expressway; the tags
expressway=yes an/or motorroad=yes might be
applicable. Also, if the ends of this improved
section are near other major roads, then highway=trunk might make sense.
Sorry for the uncertain reply but it's not
convenient to closely inspect these things on my phone.
