[talk-au] Looking for some Brisbane based mapper support.

As I said then, to me personally, looking at Brisbane CBD:
https://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=14/-27.4701/153.0343, (but the other
major cities would be the same), the main grid of the busiest streets
should probably be Secondary with smaller streets as either Tertiary or
Minor / Unclass?

One comment on the =secondary talk page pretty well agrees:
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Talk:Tag:highway%3Dsecondary

I'm amazed though that there appears never to have been any discussion on
this previously?

Just looking at other major cities, most of them seem to be a mix of
primary & tertiary, with only a few secondary, except for Manhattan, NY,
which has lots of both primary & secondary with not that many tertiary.

Thanks

Graeme
