In my opinion, there's too much variation in how each state organizes and numbers its state-and-lower roads to make a uniform, US-wide rule. I would say that state highways should be network=US:ST (where "ST" is the two-letter state abbreviation), and anything further (county roads, Pennsylvania's primary and secondary state roads, California's multi-county roads, etc.) would be US:ST:<whatever>, where the "<whatever>" is up to the mappers in that state (and, hopefully, documented on that state's page on the wiki). -- ...computer contrarian of the first order... / http://aperiodic.net/phil/ PGP: 026A27F2 print: D200 5BDB FC4B B24A 9248 9F7A 4322 2D22 026A 27F2 --- -- Shadowfax.
