Forest Service Roads

When editing Forest Service Roads be sure to read the Waze wiki page first in order to follow naming convention. Listed below are references that are a good starting point

Dirt Roads 4x4

Montana follows the following functional classification for Gravel and Dirt Road /4x4 trails.

Gravel Roads
Functional Classification
Minor Arterial Minor Highway
Minor Collector Primary Street
Local/Not Mapped Street

Off-road / Not maintained
Functional Classification
Minor Arterial Off-road / Not maintained
Minor Collector Off-road / Not maintained
Local/Not Mapped Off-road / Not maintained

Images demonstrated above can not cover all scenarios for mapping maintenance level to Waze road type. These types of roads may undergo variation in quality over seasons additionally depending on the climate (rain/snow). Particularly, some gravel roads may have qualities that are closer to Dirt Road / 4x4 Trail than street. Editors with local experience or potential Street View images may help in this determination.

Driveways / Private Roads

Please follow the following guidelines for Private Driveways. Wiki standard can be found here. Driveways

Mapping rural diveways

50 to 399m (164 to 1309ft): If an address/location cannot be reasonably guided to without a private driveway, as might be the case with the residence being closer to an adjacent street, it can be added.
400m (1312ft) or more: Map it. Do not delete existing driveways already meeting this criterion.

Discussion can be found in the Montana section of the forums.
