I'd be inclined to include "Road" on that. On Thu, Jul 30, 2020 at 5:06 PM wrote: > > County Road 14, Boundary County ID. TIGER name is "Camp Nine Road", > joins with a forest road labelled in the US Forest Roads Overlay as just > "Camp Nine". > > Around 48.7993305N 116.2837172W > > Mark. > >

County Road 14, Boundary County ID. TIGER name is "Camp Nine Road", joins with a forest road labelled in the US Forest Roads Overlay as just "Camp Nine". Around 48.7993305N 116.2837172W Mark. On 2020/07/30 8:12, Paul Johnson wrote: > Could we get some examples of what you mean? > > On Wed,

That seems sensible. What about the general case (i.e. no continuity with a county road?) - to add "road" or not? On 2020/07/30 7:09, Paul Johnson wrote: > I'd generally include the whole name including "Road" in that case. > > On Wed, Jul 29, 2020 at 5:03 PM >

I'm also in favor of this change. It's a route number, so it only should be in the ref tag. This will make Forest service roads more consistent with other numbered routes. Even though most, if not all, Forest service roads don't have a name but just a number, I still am in favor of this. I was a
