The big issue I'm having around New Westminster is that everything is tagged residential, with the few streets that are tagged all being tagged as secondary I've tagged some of the major residential collectors. Some examples.
10th Ave (99A/1A) is tagged as secondary, the same as 10th Ave East, which isn't part of the 99A/1A, and has two lanes and is of a quite different character. These are both tagged the same as the Lougheed Highway in the Burnaby/Coquitlam region, which is a 4-6 divided highway. It seems like the only tanks in use are essentially secondary, motorway, and residential. To me it would make more sense if the major routes such as Lougheed, Kingsway, 99A/1A, Granville, Oak, etc were primary, with routes like the Lougheed where it is divided and the Mary Hill being tagged as Trunk or Motorway since they are divided highways with very few intersections. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Richard Weait Sent: Thursday, October 07, 2010 5:46 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [Talk-ca] Tagging of roads in Vancouver On Thu, Oct 7, 2010 at 8:24 AM, Paul Norman <[email protected]> wrote: > I've been looking at the tagging practices in the lower mainland and > the documentation on the wiki.

Can you link to areas that concern you? Let's have a look. _______________________________________________ Talk-ca mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-ca _______________________________________________ Talk-ca mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-ca
