However, these routes have changed so many times, and we don't currently have the schema to retain every variation old route, so I see it just as a transitional thing. > Regard hierachies - have we agreed that all A routes are Trunk, and all B > routes are Primary?

And finally we'll be able to have a deterministic algorithm at least for trunk and primary. I imagine the RMS in their wisdom are going to call the Hume south of Berrima the A31, rather than M31, so we'll have to make a call on whether we keep that as motorway.
