Could you take a look at http://www.openstreetmap.org/edit#map=17/-9.91903/33.89645 (part of http://tasks.hotosm.org/project/1641 Malawi). I wouldn't describe the area as residential as the buildings are too scattered and there are cultivated fields in between.

You will see there are some obvious highway=unclassified (wide roads linking areas of population). Also some obvious highway=path (less than 2m wide) between groups of buildings.

But I am unsure how best to tag the smaller highways (2m wide or more, and so accessible for a vehicle) between some of these groups of buildings. Presumably not highway=track, as we are told that is for access to farmland.

Would highway=service be sensible?

What do others do?

Thanks
Martin
