[Talk-us] REF tags for State Highways on ways

[James Mast]

I just thought I would throw this out there so this can be settled once and for all.  Which ref tag setup do you think should be used for State Highways on ways (not relations)? "PA-44" or "44".  The reason I'm asking is because I've seen several people put the state abbreviation in the ref field and some people don't.  Heck, I'm guilty of doing it both ways myself.  In some states you see it both ways (NY;KY), some states you see just the number (FL), and some states have the state abbreviation + number (CA).

So, we really need to all come to an agreement on which way we should use in all the states.  Because it doesn't look good having two different ways to do it and it should be standardized.
