I finally figured out that when it's type=route, osm2pgsql changes the field
name to route_name so I've updated the database and configs to show route_name.
In the example below, the ways are tagged with local street names, but the
highway has no name or ref, but instead the highway name and

Does anyone think this is a good idea?
Use network=D for D classified roads, if they exist.
Use network=detour for NSW classified detour routes
Use network=alt_NR for Alternate NR routes
Sounds like a good idea to me

I've updated the tagging guidelines to reflect this:

I'm going to be adding Tourist Route Shields to the map shortly but in the

It lists shields for a number of things like Alt National Route, and on one of

This is the current relation tags I've come up with based on the talk-us

Ref Relation tags:

network=A
ref=1

Name Relation tags:
name=Bruce Highway

The Savannah Way goes from QLD to WA, it's one route and I can't think of a
good reason to split it.
There is a system limitation of 1000 ways per relation, the

I've been playing about with this marking a tourist route and this makes a lot
of sense. When highways and/or tourist routes share the same physical piece of
road you can have each with it's own relation route,
Personally I like
Ref=56
Network=au_nh
Over
Ref=NH56
Because the ref really is 56.
