We're both talking about suburban arterials (or at least as suburban as Las Vegas gets). We just disagree on when they should be tertiary. I prefer to tag collectors as residential (or unclassified, if appropriate). I'm expecting the routing software to get people in and out of subdivision without marked collectors once we have all the traffic lights and turn restrictions in the map. Frankly it doesn't matter which, if either, philosophy Timothy adopts. I'm confident he'll make great improvements to the map. -- --------------------------------------------------------------------- Joseph Scanlan +1-702-455-3679 http://www.n7xsd.us/ j...@co.clark.nv.us (work) (not work) n7...@arrl.net --------------------------------------------------------------------- So he went inside there to take on what he found.
