Well, you can call it good or bad, but the fact of the matter is that TIGER was never really intended to be a road map. highway=residential was the fallback for things for which we didn't have a better type. They were all smaller roads and that seemed to make them render in the most reasonable way. I think of it like meaning, "small unimportant road which doesn't matter unless you're close to it". You'd never use these for long-distance travel, for instance. -- Dave _______________________________________________ Talk-us mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-us
