Major non-interstate highways that have traffic light free multi-level

I think free tagging is great, but we should not allow multiple

A tag should not indicate both it's legal status and it's structure,

Well, that's an unfortunate fact of the
Thanks for that Jeffrey. I agree entirely that rendering should follow
tagging and not lead tagging, my main concern at the moment is that UK
rendering (blue for motorway and orange for secondary) is encouraging
inappropriate tagging. I think we agree that one should clarify first how to
tag what

Hi,
Shouldn't this be as easy as adding a tag indicating country and
altering the stylesheet to say highway=motorway country=us =
color=yellow, highway=motorway country=uk = color=blue?
Complete with the ability to have US motorways in the UK, yay!

Hi,
Who decides what colours are used on the main maps? I.e. who actually
decided that motorways should be blue, and trunks should be green, how
railways are rendered etc.?
Say I'd like to see railways rendered differently in the [EMAIL PROTECTED]
maps, where
should I ask? Is there
