There are basically 4 highway networks in this country: Interstate, US, State, and County. I know that technically each state and county has it's own separate network, but most renderers are just going to display generic shields for state & county. For those who do want to render different shields for each state and/or county routes why not use sub tags as we commonly do for many other osm features: For Michigan route 12: ref=12 network=state state=michigan For Bennington County route 16 in Vermont: ref=16 network=county state=vermont county=bennington Zeke
