| === Functional Classification Data ===
| |
|
| |
| According to the Kentucky Department of Transportation, Functional Classification is described as the following.
| |
|
| |
| ''Functional classification groups streets and highways into classes or systems according to the character of service they are intended to provide. This classification recognizes that individual roads and streets do not serve travel independently. Rather, travel involves movement through a network of inter-related roads and streets. Because a highway network is limited and restrictive, the movement must be channeled through an efficient, hierarchical system of facilities that progress from a lower classification handling short, locally oriented trips to a higher classification as the trips become longer and connect regional and inter-regional traffic generators. The level of service provided by, and function performed by, each facility within this hierarchical system determines its functional classification''

| The easiest resource to use for Functional Classification data in Kentucky is the [http://maps.kytc.ky.gov/photolog/?config=ActiveHighwayPlan Kentucky Active Highway Plan] site. To show Functional Class information, go to the Legend tab, click the arrow next to System, then check the box for Functional Class. Also be sure to uncheck the "Active Highway Plan" in the Legend. [[Kentucky/Test#Functional_Classification|This chart]] is available above to relate KYTC Functional Classification to Waze Road Types.

| If you'd prefer offline PDFs, the [http://transportation.ky.gov/Planning/Pages/Functional-Classification.aspx Kentucky Transportation Cabinet Functional Classification website] has maps for major cities and all counties in Kentucky.

State Highway Renaming
Kentucky is now using the format KY-xxx for State Highways. The current name or alt name of "State Hwy xxx" or "Ky-xxx" will be changed according to KY-xxx where xxx is replaced with the number assigned to the State highway. This will not replace local names of roads, such as "Main St" when the highway segment has a name, but the alt will be changed in that case. If you are taking the time to change a segment to the new naming convention, please review it for any issues attached and make corrections as needed.
Renaming should be tracked with this spreadsheet.
