Nope - UK highway tagging, which was of course the original, has always largely been aligned to administrative classifications. highway=motorway -> UK motorway (Mx or Ax(M)) highway=trunk -> UK primary A-road (Ax with green signs) highway=primary -> UK non-primary A-road - yes, really (Ax with black/white signs) highway=secondary -> UK B-road (Bx) We do have a super special, very rarely used exemption known as the Oxford High Street Exemption, though. cheers Richard _______________________________________________ talk mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
