[Talk-us] Tagging a super-two highway (trunk or motorway?)

[Paul Johnson]

There seems to be some disagreement on how to handle the super-two (or
super-four s California has a few of) highways.  These highways are two
lanes, one each way (or four lanes, two each way) with no central division
or median, but freeway-like connecting ramps.  Examples would be long
stretches of US 400 in Kansas, parts of US 169 through Kansas, the tolled
section of the Chickasaw Turnpike in Oklahoma, and and IIRC, a long section
of either WA 539 or US 12 heading north into Monroe, Washington (I know the
town's right I just can't remember the route number from last time I drove
it).

I'm under the understanding that the consensus for a motorway would be
fully multiple (at minimum 2) carriageway with limited access, whereas a
trunk would be any motorway that doesn't meet that criteria (intersections,
single carriageway, etc).  Could I get a clarification?
