Comment from Govanus
Where is the list?
I've received complaints about this road being misrepresented.
Ordence Survey and Goverment Departments local and National treat this as a major road.
It has been rebuilt twice this mellenium because it has become worn out with traffic use.
It has so many vehicals that it can still have a traffic queue stretching from Longwall to Turl Street in the rush hour when the through traffic restictions are still in place.
Its the main 24hr spine route for two of the lorry access zones.
Its wide enough to take five lanes of traffic and two more are dedicated to masses of local student tourist pedestians.
It collects all the bus routes from the west side of the city to run down it and around and down St. Aldate's.
As the Buses act as the Citys mass transit system and the majority of people working and living in the city avoid driving to the City Centre as it is officialy discoraged through inflated parking charges and a rejection of additional private parking provisons such as adding an underground car park to a college building when its not been already...In what sort of way is it *not* a major primary road???
I can understand that a simple representaion of a way running like there is no time restrictions on minority users like cars, but I have spent 7 hours drawing features to highlight and premote the rendering of the traffic gate the runs for only about 10 meters about the width of the carrageway there.
Unlike in the past when it was a single line of one colour I left it delibratly as a tertiary middle (when it should be the same as the rest) to delibratly force renders to make it look different to map readers. So on this basis the Note tags should be and had had a bit more time would have been removed for being out of date. I stopped short of using area:highway tags to show the area of a central reservation runnig from the gate to just beyond Queens Lane. For the reasons noted on the notes entered into OSM at that place.I had warned these routes were likly to be reupgraded when I got the Ref's reentered on these roads last time they went as they are used in some signs and directions espcially for lorry drivers whose delivery diagrams include them.
So where do I have to take the argument to it mentions a list but not where to find it..
