Roads

Road Types

  • The main roads in a district or town should at least be set to primary.
  • If segments will be used for through-going traffic or for longer distances connecting districts or towns, they should at least be mH (minor Highway)
  • Main interconnecting roads with fast traffic should ar least be MH (major Highway)

Please read the Quickstart guide to road types before changing the type.

Always make sure a road is at least connected to a same level of road type or higher. Thus, Waze should be able to route from primary to primary (or higher), from minor to minor (or higher), from major to major (or higher), and from Freeway to Freeway. Another way of explaining this, is that you should be able to continuously drive on the same or higher type of segments for the routing engine to use that road type in the calculations.

This means we need to sometimes make small roads mH, for the possibility of calculating long distance routing. Please discuss with the hosts/mentors if anything is unclear.

As for road types, please use the table in the quickstart page with the map as follows: Freeway: National Highways that are referenced in the map Major Highway (MH): National Highways that aren’t seen in the map Minor Highway (mH): All State Highways and Arterial Roads within Indian Metro Cities

Road Segment Locks

During the mapraid, please leave road locks as you find them, except for Freeways. Freeways may be locked to 5 after:

  • All ramps are connected
  • Stubs of lower-ranked roads are connected as needed, so that more editors may work on them.

After the mapraid, the roads will be locked to the locking standards for India. You can read more about road lock standards in India.
