I always tag based on the actual access control. At the end of a clear freeway, continue the motorway tagging to the first intersection or driveway, or if the road becomes single-carriageway and isn't a super-2 (a controlled-access freeway in which only one carriageway is constructed with accommodation for the second later). There is no "except for the intersections."
If a road like that has enough intersections spaced throughout its length, it should be tagged as trunk, perhaps with expressway=yes. Though with just two or three intersections nearby in the middle of a freeway (for example the handful of remaining intersections in the mostly-freeway section of US 29 in Maryland), I'd tag it as trunk only between the intersections and make the rest motorway. The Tisdale Parkway should absolutely be tagged as motorway starting from the Gilcrease intersection southward. Gilcrease should be motorway as well from where it becomes dual-carriageway. The remaining sections of each of these roads should be tagged as trunk. On Thu, Nov 29, 2018 at 12:31 AM Nathan Mills <nat...@nwacg.net> wrote: > I think this is a good general rule.
