Hi, if there are folks out there who're thinking about mapping this
on-ground, then sharing some unsolicited and untested ideas:

A real-world requirement for many logistics / transport folks is : which of
the roads are too narrow to send my truck / 4-wheeler / tempo / e-rickshaw
through?
And frankly the people living there may also appreciate if map routers
stopped sending wide bodied vehicles through their lanes.

So if you aim at that, then you can drop all the wide roads from your task
list and focus on just the narrow ones. That dataset can be built by
selective querying of OSM data. See:
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:highway

Then, in many cases it might not be the whole stretch of road, but just the
narrowest bottleneck on it that matters, as that point will decide what can
(or rather shouldn't) pass through.
So, mapping of just the narrowest points instead of lengths also cuts down
your task load and reduces the scale, complexity and skill requirements for
your operations considerably. One can take a simple photo of the point with
geo-tagging on instead of having to capture data at every X meters etc.
