As a local to Brisbane, I have fixed the roads to better represent the importance of them in terms of connectivity to other roads around the Brisbane CBD.

One comment on the =secondary talk page pretty well agrees: https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Talk:Tag:highway%3Dsecondary I'm amazed though that there appears never to have been any discussion on this previously? Just looking at other major cities, most of them seem to be a mix of primary & tertiary, with only a few secondary, except for Manhattan, NY, which has lots of both primary & secondary with not that many tertiary.

Ah yes, sorry about that. My interest in highway classification is so low I don't think your email even registered with me. Had a read through the wiki on highway classification and it is pretty useless for deciding what to do in urban areas. Anyway let's give a week or so and then we can close that issue with a note that nobody has an opinion on the subject.
