Throw in an at grade intersection, that's no longer grade separated. That's not a freeway anymore, that's an expressway. Expressways are semi-controlled and do have surface intersections, though some or even most may be grade separated. > Further, I strongly disagree with the way the Tisdale was originally > tagged, (the entire thing, even the obvious freeway sections were > originally trunk) because if we followed Paul's logic everywhere, most odd > numbered 3 digit interstates would have to be tagged as trunk. > Well, let's talk about that. There's quite a few out there that probably shouldn't be motorways, but instead motorway_link or trunk. I 90 west of I 5 is mapped a motorway right now but it's just a spiderweb of ramps to the Seattle Bus Tunnel, 5th Avenue, Seattle Boulevard, 4th Avenue, and Martinez. Rationale for going from the US 412 interchange being that's the last (only, really) major junction along Tisdale with an unambiguous motorway.
