Functional Classifications

Proposed Freeways

This section is for proposed upgrades of Major Highways to Freeways that meet the definition of "controlled-access highway." This is only a draft, please do not change the road type of these roads until consensus is reached.

State Highway Naming

This section tracks the progress of the effort to rename all state highways in Rhode Island with the designation RI-XXX. The goal is to have all numbered routes in the state use this designation to allow for route shields to appear on the Waze app. Note that, in cases where the locals refer to these roads by their common name instead of the route number, the designation will be recorded as an alternate name.

If you would like to contribute to this effort, including local knowledge about alternate route names, please add your notes and name to the route that you are verifying and change the row's background color to gray once the route has been verified.

Please refer to this map to determine which roads cover which routes. Also check out the Waze naming standard for State Highways to ensure conformity with the national standard.
