Jenny - even in Scotland the Trunk routes are maintained by a central contract while Primary routes are now maintained by the local authorities. Some routes that were ORIGINALLY 'primary' have been declassified so that the local authorities are not required to maintain them to the same standard as required for a Primary/Trunk route. OSM still works to the format when ALL primary routes were maintained by central government and were identified by their 'green' Trunk route designation ;) -- Lester Caine - G8HFL ----------------------------- Contact - http://lsces.co.uk/wiki/?page=contact L.S.Caine Electronic Services - http://lsces.co.uk EnquirySolve - http://enquirysolve.com/ Model Engineers Digital Workshop - http://medw.co.uk// Firebird - http://www.firebirdsql.org/index.php _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
