[Talk-us] US highway classification

[Nathan Mills]

 Would I be correct in stating that tagging an undivided 2 lane (one 
 lane in each direction) highways would be improper, even if a state 
 calls the highway a "trunk" for planning purposes? Especially if it's in 
 the middle of a town with a low speed limit. I understood trunk to be 
 divided and limited access (but not fully grade-separated). One of our 
 more prolific editors seems to have gone hog wild with the trunk tag in 
 Texas.

 I'm changing the undivided segments to primary where I've recently 
 driven the highway and can therefore personally verify they aren't 
 eligible for trunk tagging. In all cases I've seen so far the road is in 
 fact the primary route between cities in the (rural) area, so seems to 
 qualify for primary on that basis, in addition to being signed US 
 highways.
