==== State Highway Naming ====
== Locking Standard ==
* The city field for all names (primary and alternates) of limited access state highways in the GLR (ex: M-59) should be empty and the "none" checkbox marked.  This guideline only applies to those sections of state highways that cannot have house numbers, thus making city names irrelevant.

Locking Standard

The following defines a set of minimum locking standards proposed for all roads within Great Lakes. Any road of a certain type or category must be locked at least to the level in the chart below. Roads may be locked higher for protection and special situations (tricky design, frequent mistakes, imaging inaccuracies, and the like), but should not be locked lower.

It is understood that more rural or inactive areas may not yet meet this standard: editors are encouraged to recruit and mentor additional editors to build coverage.

A great time to implement these locks is while bringing the road types of an area into compliance with the current US road type standards (FC and highway systems). Lock the roads based on type after they've been set to current US Road Type Standards.

 Freeway  5

Note: One-way PLRs used outside of parking lots, such as alleys and streets through apartment complexes, should be locked at 2. See the GLR major roads page for additional information on the standards listed here.
