it is not clear if the new way is actually better, at least the
current data stats show that mappers still prefer the old method,
at least for bus stops, as it is simpler (you need just one tag
highway=bus_stop instead of two: public_transport=platform and
bus=yes, for the same information

Also note that Census ZIPs are somewhat fluid, as are postal ZIPs, and
postal ZIPs don't cover the entire country, and postal ZIPs are based on
carrier routes and not an area.

So, a couple of questions:
1. What, exactly, is fair game to change to a state abbreviation

Fair game nationwide, two letter state abbreviations should be used for the
primary state highway network.

We have a similar convention in the US for doing that, though usually

Howdy,
I have a question about how much effort should be put into adding directional
suffixes to road names.
Many counties around Atlanta have adopted directional suffixes for roads, both
in incorporated areas as well as outside city limits. Usually all areas in the
county use the same

Please forgive me I’m not trying to stir things up. I’m new to OSM and trying
to learn and I don’t have any idea what the NE2 you refer to is.
I understand that a lot of things are tagged different then what I would think
do to standards. I understand that and I’m doing everything I can to

It makes sense the way you explain it. I was looking at it as a name of the
route and thinking it should me the same as signs etc. But not the fact that
routing engines and renderers will know it’s a state highway based on the state
abbreviation.

Do any routing engines currently care about prefixes on way refs?
From what I've seen so far, most of the map styles that use the ref tag
to distinguish route networks will recognize either the state
abbreviation, SR, or SH. Some
