Trunk: Wide, high-speed roads with limited cross traffic. Usually dual carriageways in urban areas. Primary: In rural areas, a major road between cities which does not meet motorway or trunk standards. In urban areas, a major road which is particularly long or heavily traveled, or the extension of a road which is primary outside the urban area. Secondary: Other major urban streets not meeting the standards for primary. Also highways in rural areas. Tertiary: City streets that have a median, more than two lanes, and/or moderate traffic, but are low speed and primarily residential, or locally-maintained rural roads that are important for local navigation, such as connecting a shortcut between two nearby highways which don't intersect. -- David J.
