Many Highways and Motorways also have a common name associated with them. If this name appears on signage and/or is used by addresses, add the name within parentheses behind the above mentioned naming convention, e.g. Hwy ## (Name).

Only add the street name when you are sure of the local naming. If in doubt, just use Hwy # as primary and add the name as an alternate. Local editors can update the primary name later.
