Hello Eugene,<br>
<br>
As mentioned in a <a moz-do-not-send="true" href="https://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/talk-ph/2021-April/006734.html">previous
mail</a>, I've already added the designation values that you
previously proposed to the documentation on the <a moz-do-not-send="true" href="https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Philippines/Mapping_conventions/Roads/Classification">road
classification page</a>. <br>
<br>
These are:<br>
national_primary_road<br>
national_secondary_road<br>
national_tertiary_road<br>
provincial_road<br>
municipal_road (also serves for city roads so that we don't need to
retag when towns become cities)<br>
barangay_road<br>
<br>
Adding expressway seems to be a no-brainer. I also like the
suggestion of a separate designation for city roads as I think the
reduced potential for confusion outweighs the effort needed for
retagging when municipalities become cities. <br>
<br>
As for the specific values, I find the previous variant that
includes the road suffix much better because it's a clear
distinction from designation for administrative entities (especially
for barangay roads where the value without suffix would be
identical).<br>
<br>
Regards,<br>
Timmy<br>

<div>HI Jherome,</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I forgot to add, I think we should also include tagging the
official legal classifications of roads using the
"designation" key: <a href="https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:designation" moz-do-not-send="true">https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:designation</a></div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I think we can have the following values: "expressway",
"national", "provincial", "city", "municipal", and "barangay".
We might also need to break down the "national" value into
"national_primary", "national_secondary", and
"national_tertiary" following the DPWH classes.<br>

<div>Hi, everyone,
<div dir="auto"><br>
</div>
<div dir="auto">It's been a month since the last
discussion on road classifications, that time regarding
special considerations for major roads within certain
islands as well as missing road links and
bypass/diversion roads under construction. Now, I'll be
presenting the final version of the proposal at </div>
<div dir="auto">
<div dir="auto"><a href="https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Philippines/Mapping_conventions/Roads/Classification" target="_blank" moz-do-not-send="true">https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Philippines/Mapping_conventions/Roads/Classification</a>. </div>
<div dir="auto"><br>
</div>
<div dir="auto">Summary of the proposed guidelines:</div>
<div dir="auto">- Motorway = Expressways (HSH-1
standard)</div>
<div dir="auto">- Trunk = highways between large cities;
HSH-2 expressways (none existing yet). In large urban
areas composed of many large cities like Manila or
Cebu, should be applied sparingly and limited to
primary through routes across the area that are not
expressways and connect with longer trunk routes.
Trunk routes should generally be moved to bypasses
where they exist.</div>
<div dir="auto">- Primary = highways between small
cities, large municipalities and provincial capitals
that are neither cities or large municipalities; major
arterials in urban context.</div>
<div dir="auto">- Secondary = highways between
medium-sized municipalities; minor arterials in urban
context.</div>
<div dir="auto">- Tertiary = roads between small
municipalities and most barangays; collector roads in
urban context. </div>
<div dir="auto">- Unclassified = other local roads that
are not residential in nature; other smaller roads
connecting sitios and puroks in rural areas</div>
<div dir="auto">- Residential = residential streets</div>
<div dir="auto">- Track = farm or forestry tracks</div>
<div dir="auto">- Service = driveways, parking lot
roads, alleys, emergency median openings on
expressways</div>
<div dir="auto"><br>
</div>
<div dir="auto">Some factors that can affect choice of
classification are:</div>
<div dir="auto"><br>
</div>
<div dir="auto">- administrative designation</div>
<div dir="auto">- connectivity </div>
<div dir="auto">- existing network topology
(particularly relevant in small islands where there
are few major roads)</div>
<div dir="auto">- function (expressway, major/minor
arterial, collector, local)</div>
<div dir="auto">- physical qualities (no. of lanes,
shoulders, road width, presence of median/center
island)</div>
<div dir="auto">- sizes of settlements served</div>
<div dir="auto"><br>
</div>
<div dir="auto">I want anyone's final say here before we
can adopt them as guidelines in our main mapping
convention page.</div>
