[talk-pr] Roads Project (Agustin Graterole)

[Agustin Graterole]

Thank you José, I should be adding this to the guideline.

Hey what do you guys think about the "highway=track" tag mess we have all
over the island? (looks awful).  This "track" tag is for forestry,
agricultural uses, etc, but it's widespread on paved residential roads and
more.

Another related question, what do you guys think about using a combination
of "highway=residential" and "surface=ground" tags for unpaved roads that
lead to houses (typical PR rural stuff which still doesn't count as a
"track")?

Déjenme saber!
