=== State Highway Naming ===
 
The approved format for State Highway naming in {{RootPage2}} is:  '''SR-##'''
 
=== Locking Standard ===
{{Lock Standard State|UT}}
 
=== Functional Classification ===
 
Please refer to this forum topic for more information on FC - [http://www.waze.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=276&t=85397 Road Types (USA) – comprehensive overhaul of drivable roads]
 
The Utah Functional Classification system is on par with the Nationwide standard, and consists of 7 Road Types.
 
==== UT to Waze FC conversion ====
 
Utah's Dept of Transportation has made Functional Classification maps available online, in PDF format, for each county.  They also provide an interactive statewide map.

===== UDOT GIS class and color description =====
[[File:UTFC.png|left|GIS Legend]]
The Utah Classification and Color scheme come from the official Utah D.O.T (UDOT) Functional Classification (FC) map that is published by UDOT. The legend shows what classifications UDOT uses and what color is assigned to each class.

=== Speed Limits ===
 
Utah follows the Waze [[Speed limits/USA|USA speed limits]] guidance. Please read that page carefully before editing any Speed Limits (SLs).
 
Utah does not alter speed limits for temporary reductions such as school zones or work zones, unless the work zone duration will exceed 3 months and the signs present are fixed-speed and on permanent style mountings (no digital variable speed limit signs, no portable signs).
 
==== Speed Limit standards ====
The following are the [https://le.utah.gov/xcode/Title41/Chapter6A/41-6a-S601.html speed limits laws of Utah], except where posted signs indicate differently (higher or lower speed limits).
 
* Urban district: '''25''' mph.
* All other locations: '''55''' mph.

=== Road Elevations ===
Utah practices "True Elevations" where almost all segments are set with elevation "Ground", unless they are passing over/beneath another segment or major waterway.
* Drivable and non-drivable (Railroad, etc.) segments are handled by the same rules.
* Only segments that "cannot see the sky" should have negative elevation (e.g. tunnels, underground parking garages)
* Only set elevation as high as necessary, with the relative elevations representing the true physical relationships. Example: Nothing should be +2 unless it is crossing over a +1 segment, which is crossing over a Ground level segment.
* If you use the Bridge tool to join segments, be aware that it raises the elevation of the newly-joined segment. Lower the joined segment as appropriate.
* The [[Elevation_-_bringing_the_Seagull_to_Australia|"Seagull"]] guidelines apply to elevations in Utah, though the nomenclature "True Elevation" is preferred.
** Only elevate/lower the actual bridge/tunnel section of the road.
** Bridge segments should be split with a junction node at both the start and end of the bridge. Don't create elevated bridges for water unless the waterway is of significance (i.e. don't bridge every 5 foot rural creek).
** Tunnels should be split with a junction node at least 15m '''before''' and '''after''' the tunnel, to allow time for the GPS to regain signal. Set the "Tunnel" checkbox as well.
** Do not split segments for elevation purposes if the bridge/tunnel starts/stops within 60m/200ft of an existing junction. Re-use that junction that is "close enough."
