Tod,
This section of I-69 is an exception to the odd numbers being north and south. The official highway direction of the section of I-69 I’m talking about is east and west. All signs for it are also east and west. I understand what you are saying about the official direction is not always the same as the actual direction. There is a place on I-75 near me where northbound is going southwest for a short distance and southbound is going northeast but that is not the case with I-69 Dave From: Tod Fitch [mailto:t...@fitchdesign.com] Sent: Thursday, September 21, 2017 11:49 PM To: Dave Mansfield <mansfie...@chartermi.net> Cc: talk-us@openstreetmap.org Subject: Re: [Talk-us] I-69 east west vs north south I don’t have direct knowledge of I-69 but the numbering on the Interstate system has odd numbers for north-south routes, so having all of I-69 in north and south relations seems correct to me. I have seen area where due to topography long stretches of north-south road actually go east-west. I’ve also seem areas were US numbered highways end up with an opposite compass bearing (i.e. the north bound direction on the highway is actually going south). Just because a section of the route is going in a different direction than the overall route is not a reason to separate it out of the route relation. That is, the route relation should match the official highway direction.

It is part Relations that are north and south. I would like to fix it but I don’t have a lot of experience with relations so I thought I should ask first. Would it be correct to remove the section that is east and west from the north and south relations and create new relations for east and west?
