Speed Limits
While updating the roads, you may as well add speed limits (SLs). Notice that they may differ accross states and may also be adapted locally. Please check if there are existing SLs and make sure not to override them. In-depth info.
Speed Limits in India are expressed in km/h. As we cannot use WME Street View to verify the Speed Limits, we will enter them according to the following guidelines. The following states have their own speed limit regulations, check there first:
- to be added
| Road category | Speed limit km/h |
WME Road Type | Comments | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Rural area | Urban area | |||
| Expressway with access control | 120 | -- | Freeway | |
| Highways (4 lane or more, divided (with Median strips/Dividers) | 100 | 70 | Freeway Major Highway Minor Highway | |
| Highways all others | 70 | 40 | Major Highway Minor Highway Primary Street | |
| Other roads | 60 | 40,20 | Primary Street Street | 20 - in small villages and areas with high density of buildings (usual in old parts of the cities); 40 in new or less dense parts of the cities |
| Toll booth entrance | 40 | 40 | ||
These are general speed limits and the Speed Limit Signs will probably be in this range. Be sure to check state specific guidelines first.
Notes:
- The limits shown above apply only if there are no other signs present, as the signs may prescribe a lower or a higher speed limit. We are dependent on local editors to verify these speeds.
- currently WME allows to specify only one speed limit for a single road segment. If a road has variable speed limits, check with your group leader what method to use (lowest/highest/no speed limit, or map only the speed limit which is in effect most of the time during daylight hours/most hours of the day/days of the week).
