[OSM-talk-be] about primary - secondary ... roads

[Luc Van den Troost]

Hi,


Just would come up with this example in Beerse.

http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=51.32282&lon=4.85996&zoom=16&layers=B000FTF

Some history. The main road N132, is / was as currently marked on the
map.

The one-way rule, however, came later and now traffic going from south
to north is guided by signs along the east side of the block, trough
streets that belong to the municipality.

That brings up 2 questions:

1. shouldn't this indicated route in the opposite direction be marked as
'secondary road' as the N132 is?

2. should this opposite direction route be marked as N132 too?


Personaly i should certainly say yes to the first question. The opposite
direction way has the same function as the new one way direction on the
gewestweg. It also would make more sense for people planning their
route, either visually, either by routing software.  

Prefer to put it up here instead of having a tagging-war. Guess it has
been changed some times already there.

BTW, in Loenhout I noticed the N144 seems not mapped on the place I
found it partially to be yesterday.
