You are exaggerating. They all say something like "specially designated (typically by a government) for use by a particular mode (or modes) of transport." > Official is new and has only one meaning. >From Map features: "official is used for ways dedicated to a certain mode of travel by law. Usually indicated by a traffic sign." I really do not see where the use of "designated" has differed from this definition.
