=== Ramsey County Lettered Roads ===
==============================
The Ramsey County lettered roads are a special situation.  They do not get abbreviated with the letter.  For example County J should not be named CR-J or CH-J.
This page is only viewed directly in the Major Events table on the Closures subpage.--><noinclude>[[Category:{{RootPage2}}]]
[{{fullurl:{{BasePage2}}/Closures|action{{=}}purge}} {{u|Click here to return to the {{RootPage2}}/Closures Subpage}}]<br/>


These roads have a long history. They were laid out by Ramsey County on unincorporated land north of St Paul before most of the cities we know today were created. [http://www.historicmapworks.com/Map/US/487761/Index+Map+001/Ramsey+County+1931/Minnesota/ See a historical 1931 map here].  As cities incorporated land, many of them kept these names even though they were no longer county owned and maintained roads.  As far as Ramsey County is concerned, if it is a county owned road, it will have a #. For example County J is Ramsey County 1.  All the official blue 5-sided Ramsey county sign's only have the numbered routes. Nowhere is there a letter on a blue shield sign (in Ramsey County).  So that's why we don't abbreviate them. CR- should eventually make the white county sign, and CH- should eventually make the blue county sign, The lettered roads never appear on a blue or white sign, so they do not get the CR- or CH- abbreviation.  Also some of these are not even county owned roads so they don't get upgraded to primary street by default either.  For example, [https://www.waze.com/editor/?env=usa&lon=-93.13445&lat=45.03588&layers=5&zoom=9 Count D at this link] is a city road maintained by the cities of Roseville and Shoreview who have decided to leave the road named as County Rd D.  It is not a Ramsey County owned or maintained road and has no white or blue county highway signs.  So it is named "County D" to match the street signs and is classed as a street classification.  It is not upgraded to a primary street because it is not a real "County Road."
These rows fill the major Event table, and are modified using the template {{tl|Event/Item}}. If you are working on a Major Event in {{RootPage2}}, please add add that event to this table. If the event is already listed, please add your username to the row, preceded by a pipe (|), and change the date to today's date in the <code>updated=</code> parameter.


One bit of trivia since it is often asked, where are the missing letters?  County A was where Larpenter Ave is today and County G was where Highway 96 is today.


=== Other drivable roads ===
This template accepts many parameters which must be separated from each other using pipe characters (|), but can be placed in any order and will automatically  the correct parts of the table. To use a parameter you must keep the name of parameter (the part before the equals sign (=) identical to this list, and only modify what goes after the equals sign (=).


==== Dirt Road / 4X4 Trail[[File:Service road.png|200px|Service road.png]] ====
==Accepted parameters:==


{{mbox

**<code>not submitted</code> produces a red background
**<code>submitted</code> produces a light green background
**<code>in progress</code> produces an orange background.
*Up to six editors can be listed in the table for any event. These can be the editors who are working to get it submitted, maintain the segments, or just have special knowledge of the event/area. They are entered as unnamed parameters. Meaning they are to be entered between two pipe (|) characters of the adjacent parameters. Each editors name (without any spaces) should be separated with a pipe (|).
*<code>updated=</code> the date this event was last updated in this table. This is used to keep the table current, and identify stale entries.




[[File:MNdirtrd.jpg|300px|left]]In the state of {{RootPage2}}, most unpaved roads are considered [[Road_types/USA#Dirt_Road_.2F_4X4_Trail|dirt roads]].  Knowing this will help you create the correct road levels. Undrivable roads should not be mapped, should be restricted, or should be listed as a trail instead and not be connected to any functional roads. Even though 4x4 is in the title, we will only use dirt roads for standard gravel or dirt roads that most vehicles can drive on.  Keep in mind that because of the way Waze handles dirt roads, we will not use the dirt road class in the city limits of any town.  Any in-town gravel roads will be streets.
The updated parameter (<code>|updated=YY/MM(/DD)|</code>) should be updated any time you update a row. Put the date you are modifying the row after the equals sign (=).  


Because most likely people in {{RootPage2}} feel a gravel road is a dirt road, we will use Dirt Road for both examples.  Please be aware of any of these dirt roads that are minimum maintenance roads as these roads should have [[Scheduled_restrictions#Segments|restrictions]] in place for winter months.


[[File:Dirtroad.PNG|300px|right]]
The <code>|date=|</code>, and <code>|updated=|</code> parameters should use the format YY/MM/DD. The day of the month is optional. Using this format will make it easier to sort the list by updated date. This will help ensure the information on the list is current, and make it easy to find stale rows which may need to be adopted by other editors.


The reason the dirt roads classification is important is because a user can decide to not be sent on dirt roads or to only be sent on dirt roads for short distances in the settings of the Waze App. 


Keep in mind that if the person does allow for dirt roads, Waze will treat the road as a Primary Street so do not try to make an exception to well maintained dirt roads as a street or you will cause the driver to be directed on undesirable roads. Yes, that's right, a dirt road can be seen as a higher priority than a street! This is very important in rural areas where the Street Category should only be used on very short road segments that are paved.  In towns, the Dirt Road Category should be rarely used and an unpaved road should be considered a street or a private road.
For example an Event row should look like this;


==== Parking Lot Road[[File:Service road.png|200px|Service road.png]] ====
{{Tlx|Event/Item|name=''EVENT NAME''|date{{=}}14/10|in progress|username|updated{{=}}14/08}}


[[File:Parklotrhmmn.png|right|300px]]
Parking lots roads are essential to navigating users to the proper destinations.  It also helps to properly exit a parking lot.  Follow these examples to creating parking lots correctly. Click the image to the right to see a well-designed parking lot section.


* Simple is best. Do not map every lane
If there are multiple editors it should look like this
* Map the main entrances from the roads outside the parking lot
* Map lanes that run along storefronts
* Map lanes that run along main roads outside the parking area
* Map primary lanes that serve to get people from one area of the lot to another


For for information about mapping parking lots, follow this [[Best_map_editing_practice#Parking_Lots|article]]
{{Tlx|Event/Item|name=''EVENT NAME''|date{{=}}14/10|in progress|username1|username2|updated{{=}}14/08}}


==== Private Road[[File:Service road.png|200px|Service road.png]] ====


[[File:Pi gated-community1.jpg|right|300px|Pi gated-community1.jpg]]


Private Roads should follow the Wiki Example on [[Private_road#Private_Road|Private Roads]].  Please be very limited on using this for [[Driveways|driveways]] as, for the most part, these should not be mapped at all.
'''Whenever you edit this table, please be sure to include the name of the event you are editing in the summary field under the edit box.'''
————————————————————————————————————


Keep in mind that on the Waze App, a private road will look like a street. Nothing looks more off than a bunch of streets connected to a dirt road. 


If you are adding a private road for a private housing section, make sure house numbering is correct or there is a place point or area within a private road section. This area will still be able to be navigated to the correct destination as long as it has a proper address to navigate to. Pay attention to [[Private_Installations#Problem_Definition|this article]] for more information.


In the case of very long driveways, it may helpful to a driver to see the driveway mapped on the client app or even necessary for Waze to determine how to reach the destination. In those cases it may be prudent to add a road. See the article on [[Driveways]] for more information.

Avoid drawing alleyways unless it is considered a street by the general public. Most alleyways should not be used to direct traffic and will cause unneeded [[Node_penalties#Junction_penalties|nodes]] in the road that can cause roads connected to the alleyways to be less desirable. Most alleyways that would be mapped will use the Private Road classification.

This is a good example of where alleyways will be mapped.  This is in South Minneapolis at the corner of Xerxes Ave S and W 56th St. It is also the location of Pizzeria Lola. The parking at this location is on the side of the Cavé Vin building. It is a one-directional section and the only way to leave is through an alleyway. In this case, you would create the section as a Private Road and you only map out what is needed to enter the parking lot and exit; however, you would not need to map any other section of that alleyway.

{{RootPage2}} has been adding [[Road_types/USA#Roundabouts|roundabouts]] in many locations throughout the state.  It is important to note that most roundabouts should only have three to four connections or it will sound confusing to a driver.  Following this [https://www.waze.com/editor/?env=usa&lon=-93.94724&lat=44.16858&layers=2981&zoom=4 Example] will give proper turn information and roundabout icons on the screen.  If you would use multiple-point access, it instead will say the exit number such as, "At the Roundabout, take the 3rd exit".
{{Event/Item|name=TD 5 Boro Bike Tour|area=NYC|date=05 First Sunday annual|road=5 Boroughs|pl=https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Ira6IdyS3x3YtAlTqoXbU1Muw4ANl8rq7af2zKLcCtM/edit#gid=790135118|Rfrsw101|jdelosa|johnsninja58|PesachZ|status=submitted|updated=2017/02/08}}
[[File:Roundabouts.png|400px|right]]
This is an indication of what a user of Waze should see on an upcoming Roundabout.  It is clear at showing the direction of the turn.  It also will verbally say what is referenced on the signage such as "At the Roundabout, Continue Straight" or "turn left". This is the {{RootPage2}} Standard for creating and editing Roundabouts.

This is how it looks when more than four exit points occur.  It does not give clear guidance to the driver on what way to go aside from the highlighted road ahead. This should be avoided, Only add multiple connections per side if the signs clearly mark Exit numbers (Commonly seen on signs showing 5 or more exit points).

If at all possible, drive through a roundabout after it has been created or updated.  Verify that it seems to give correct information.
 
==== HOT & Hov Roads/Lanes ====
[[Image:Hovmn.png|right]]
High Occupancy Toll or High-occupancy Vehicle roads are not yet handled 100% by Waze as of yet, but we will still map these out to prepare for that time.
 
These roadways have the following features:
* These lanes/roads allow both toll traffic and HOV traffic to traverse the same lanes.
* There are no toll plazas or booths for paying by cash. All tolls are paid electronically to maintain traffic speed.
* Entrances and exits to the HOT lanes are limited to help maintain high speeds.
* There are no entrance/exit combinations where the toll fare rules don't apply.
* Tolls are discounted or waived for users that meet High Occupancy Vehicle (HOV) requirements. These requirements may change based on time of day.
 
To avoid traffic from entering this section, all entrance ramps will be will be restricted as in [[Carpool,_HOV,_Transit_lanes#Example_configurations|this article]]. From there, nothing will be restricted so if a user decides to take this route, he or she will be directed correctly.
 
This will all be changing shortly as we find a better way to develop these roads.
 
==== Bus or Cab Only Lanes[[File:Service road.png|200px|Service road.png]] ====
 
When a road or lane is designated for bus or cab use only, mark that road segment(s) as a '''Private Road''' to prevent the Waze router from using that segment(s) for general traffic, since the majority of the users will not be able to use that lane. It is also advisable to set the turn restrictions to prevent turns into that segment(s), but permit turns exiting the segment.
 
If a road is one-way but allows bus or cab traffic to flow the other direction, leave the road as one-way with the normal flow of traffic. There is no need to create a second road traveling the opposite direction for the bus and cab-only traffic.
 
==== Emergency Vehicle and DOT Service Roads [[File:Service road.png|200px|Service road.png]] ====
 
[[File:Emergency.jpg|right|300px|Emergency.jpg]] "Emergency and Authorized Vehicles Only" and DOT Service Roads are to be treated as Non-drivable roads. These are found primarily through the median of divided highways to connect opposite direction lanes. In most cases, these should not be mapped at all. If mapped, they should not be connected to any drivable road, with properties set to road type Private Road, and lock the segment at as high a rank as possible, up to rank 5. {{clear}}
 
=== Non-drivable roads ===
 
==== Railroad [[File:Service road.png|200px|Service road.png]] ====
 
[[File:RailroadTracksVanishingPoint.jpg|right|300px|RoadPicN11.jpg]]
 
 
Railroads are not yet added to the map, but these can be added to prepare the maps for when it is.  Mapping the tracks allows Waze to recognize spurious speed data from people Wazing on the train and prevent it from corrupting speed data for the adjacent road.
 
 
 
 
{{mbox
| type = important
| text = Please notice that railroads have changed from previous interpretations of railroad mapping.  Even veteran editors need to pay attention to this section!
}}
 
 
* Elevation will be set to the same elevation standards as a drivable road. When tracks junction a road on the ground, the Elevation should be set to Ground.
* If the railroad crosses a segment of road, it should be connected to the road to so the historical data for the rail crossing will be more accurate.
* Always select "None" for the city name. This avoids [[Smudged_city#Overview|city smudging]].
* Set railroad to 2-way directionality and Restrict turns ''to'' and ''from'' the railroad segments.
* Follow the [http://fragis.fra.dot.gov/Apps/GISFRASafety/ Federal DOT Railroad GIS] to verify the owner of the rail line to help on naming of the segment. Use the acronyms under RROWNER1 to help on naming.
* Name each segment using the rail owner name acronyms or abbreviations railroad.  For example, Twin Cities & Western Railroad uses TCWR. We would name this section TCW Railroad.  We leave off the R in the acronym because it would be redundant to say, Twin Cities & Western Railroad Railroad.
* Canadian Pacific uses the acronym CPRS, but it is more know as CP, so it will be called CP Railroad
*Do not map every piece of parallel track, such as in sidings or yards, or industrial spurs that don't cross any roads. Your work may otherwise be seen as clutter, much like mapping every parking lot row.
* Lock all railroads to a Level 2
* Keep segment lengths under 10,000 meters (32,808 Ft) – the longer the segment length, the more sluggish the editor is to respond to changes.
* Read [[Road_types/USA#Railroad|this section]] for more information about railroads.
 
==== Runway/Taxiway[[File:Service road.png|200px|Service road.png]] ====
[[File:Aelrwmn.png|right|250px]]
We will map all airports runways such:
 
* These roads will not connect to any drivable sections
* The runways will not be connected to each other
* Always select "None" for the city name. This avoids [[Smudged_city#Overview|city smudging]].
* Using [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_airports_in_Minnesota this article] we will find the airport code.  We will use the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Air_Transport_Association IATA] code unless the airport does not have one, then we will revert to the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Civil_Aviation_Organization ICAO] code.
* After finding the code, we will use [http://www.airnav.com/airports/ this] to find the runway numbers for the airport.
* Most of the time, you will see the number of the runway at the beginning and end of each runway from the aerial views.
* Name each runway as such: [Airport Code] Runway [x-x] ... for example, in the image to the right, you will see the runways for Albert Lea Municipal Airport.  The IATA code for this airport is AEL and it has two runways including Runway 5/23 & Runway 17/35 so one will be named "AEL Runway 5-23" and the other AEL Runway 17-35".
 
Please follow this Wiki article on [[Runway#Runway.2FTaxiway|Runways]] for information about how to set runways correctly.  These roads should be locked to the same standard as Airport Area itself.
 
==== Ferry [[File:Service road.png|200px|Service road.png]] ====
 
{{mbox
| type = warning
| text = The Ferry Road type is not to be used at this time. '''Do not use the Ferry Road type for any purpose.''' See [[ferries]] page for more information on how to map ferries.
}}
 
==== Walking Trails [[File:Service road.png|200px|Service road.png]] ====
 
[[File:RoadPicN9.jpg|right|300px|RoadPicN9.jpg]]
 
Because Waze currently only supports navigation for drivers and not walkers or bikers at all, we will not be drawing any of these types of roads.  Please delete any of these types of roads that you find.  If you find automatically set URs claiming a road is indicated to be be present, Please fill out the form located [//docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSekzNg6aMKuxgz2fASws5Cjzadho9BLVKpHsZluWJgL446EyQ/viewform?c=0&w=1&usp=send_form Here] and choose Second Set of Eyes so a high level editor can check out the situation.
 
==== Pedestrian Boardwalks [[File:Service road.png|200px|Service road.png]] ====
 
Because Waze currently only supports navigation for drivers and not walkers or bikers at all, we will not be drawing any of these types of roads.  Please delete any of these types of roads that you find.  If you find automatically set URs claiming a road is indicated to be be present, Please fill out the form located [//docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSekzNg6aMKuxgz2fASws5Cjzadho9BLVKpHsZluWJgL446EyQ/viewform?c=0&w=1 Here] and choose Second Set of Eyes so a high level editor can check out the situation.
 
==== Stairway [[File:Service road.png|200px|Service road.png]] ====
 
Stairways will not be added to Waze maps in Minnesota at all.  Please delete any of these sections that you find added to the map
 
 
== Speed Limits ==
 
Minnesota primarily follows the USA Speed Limits wiki: [[Speed_limits/USA | USA Speed Limits Wiki]] with some clarifications
 
=== Ramp Speed Limits ===
For ramps that are for accelerating to a road with a higher speed limit, use the higher speed limit of the destination road that the ramp goes to.
 
For ramps that go from a higher speed limit to a lower speed limit such as a freeway off ramp, do not place any speed limit on the ramp.
 
For ramps where the start and end have the same speed limit, keep the same speed limit on the ramp.
 
Do not use advisory speed limits that are black text on yellow signs.
 
=== Other Minnesota Specific Speed Limit details ===
 
The MN state laws for default unposted speed limits statewide are;
*Alleyways and mobile home parks <b>10 mph</b> unless otherwise posted.
*Urban residential roads <b>30 mph</b> unless otherwise posted.
*Rural roads <b>55 mph</b> unless otherwise posted.
 
Check with your Area or State Managers for clarification if needed.

These rows fill the major Event table, and are modified using the template {{Event/Item}}. If you are working on a Major Event in PesachZ, please add add that event to this table. If the event is already listed, please add your username to the row, preceded by a pipe (|), and change the date to today's date in the updated= parameter.


This template accepts many parameters which must be separated from each other using pipe characters (|), but can be placed in any order and will automatically the correct parts of the table. To use a parameter you must keep the name of parameter (the part before the equals sign (=) identical to this list, and only modify what goes after the equals sign (=).

Accepted parameters:

  • name= The name of the event.
  • area= The county or are the event takes place in.
  • date= The estimated date(s) this event happens on.
  • road= The main road(s) affected by this event.
  • pl= A permalink to the affected road(s), or a link to documenting listing all the affected roads (usually a Waze event closure document).
  • source= A link to an official information source for this event, a government website, the hosting organizations webpage, etc.
  • status= Whether this event has been submitted to Waze yet for this season. It accepts the following options spelled only exactly as listed here in order to correctly change the color of the row, filled with anything else will display with a white background
    • not submitted produces a red background
    • submitted produces a light green background
    • in progress produces an orange background.
  • Up to six editors can be listed in the table for any event. These can be the editors who are working to get it submitted, maintain the segments, or just have special knowledge of the event/area. They are entered as unnamed parameters. Meaning they are to be entered between two pipe (|) characters of the adjacent parameters. Each editors name (without any spaces) should be separated with a pipe (|).
  • updated= the date this event was last updated in this table. This is used to keep the table current, and identify stale entries.


The updated parameter (|updated=YY/MM(/DD)|) should be updated any time you update a row. Put the date you are modifying the row after the equals sign (=).


The |date=|, and |updated=| parameters should use the format YY/MM/DD. The day of the month is optional. Using this format will make it easier to sort the list by updated date. This will help ensure the information on the list is current, and make it easy to find stale rows which may need to be adopted by other editors.


For example an Event row should look like this;

{{Event/Item|date=14/10|in progress|username|updated=14/08}}


If there are multiple editors it should look like this

{{Event/Item|date=14/10|in progress|username1|username2|updated=14/08}}


Whenever you edit this table, please be sure to include the name of the event you are editing in the summary field under the edit box. ————————————————————————————————————
