Road shields

Road shields are linked to the street attribute of a segment, this is the full address <Street>+<City>+<County>+<Country>. Setting a shield on 1 segment will set it for all matching segments.

It is recommended that you install the [Road Shield Assistant] script to assist with see current road shields and affects of any changes you make.

Shields on segments

To match with the Road Type convention used in the UK, road shields should be mapped as follows;

Motorway - For use on Motorway with 1 or 2 digitals M1 M42
Motorway (wide) - For use on Motorway with 3+ digits M602 A38 (M)
Primary Route - For use on Major Highway A-Roads that form part of the Primary Route Network A14
Non-Primary Route - For use on all other Minor Highway A-Roads A4030
Junction No. - For use on junction ramps that have signed numbers 21 .

Changing the shield on a segment will change the shield on all segments with the same name, however far away they may be. Likewise, changing the name of a segment will change the shield if the name matches another.

Due to the implementation of this feature, extra care must be made when assigning road shields to segments with an identical street attribute when it changes Road Type, the most likely scenario will be A-roads that change from PRN to non-PRN. Mapped Road Types have no influence on the displayed shield.

At this time (May 2021) road shields do not show on the client app for mapped Primary Street road type but but may be added if needed for turn instructions.

Junction shields should not include the letter J.

Shields on turn instructions

Turn arrows now allow editors to set the visual instructions at a turn. Editors should do their best to match the road sign at the turn. The road shield (1st) and corresponding destination name (2nd) in the Visual instructions field, and any additional destination names in the Towards field.

Road numbers within brackets (A460) should not be included at all as they are not directly off the junction, nor should road numbers be written in the Towards field.

In order to receive the correct turn instructions with road shields on roundabouts make sure to add the turn guidance on the exit turn from the roundabout. The turn guidance from the exit will be copied to the entry one.

Editors should only be used when exits have a signed junction number.

-Junctions should generally be drawn '''as simply as possible'''. T-junctions and cross roads are usually best as single 2-way roads that are connected with a single node. Only when there are large turning lanes and restrictions should a more complicated layout be considered.

-The UK basemap has a lot of junctions that have been split into 1-way roads just because there's some painted chevrons in the middle of the road. This is completely unnecessary, and should be removed where they can.

-==Roundabouts==
+Due to the implementation of this feature, extra care '''must''' be made when assigning road shields to segments with an ''identical street attribute'' when it changes Road Type, the ''most likely'' scenario will be A-roads that change from PRN to non-PRN. Mapped Road Types have no influence on the displayed shield.
-Roundabouts should also be drawn '''as simply as possible''', with single 2-way segments for each connecting road. Much of the UK basemap has pairs of 1-way entry and exit segments which are not really necessary. If you have an opportunity to remove these when rebuilding a roundabout, please do so. They will look much better on the client.
-[[Image:Ukroundabout1.png|200px]] [[Image:Ukroundabout2.png|208px]] [[Image:Ukroundabout3.png|216px]]
+At this time (''May 2021'') road shields do '''not''' show on the client app for mapped Primary Street road type but but may be added if needed for turn instructions.
-'''Steps for redoing a roundabout:'''
+Junction shields should '''not''' include the letter '''''J'''''.
-* Delete roundabout and 1-way "V"s
-* Drag main 2-way segments to the centre
-* Draw new roundabout
-Small and mini-roundabouts should be drawn as large as possible. Any with a radius much less than 10m will not be visible on the client, so aim to get them close to this size if you can.
+====Shields on turn instructions====
+[[File:UK-turn-instruction.png|right|frameless|alt=|450x450px]]Turn arrows now allow editors to set the '''visual instructions''' at a turn. Editors should do their best to '''match the road sign''' at the turn. The road shield (''1st'') and corresponding destination name (''2nd'') in the ''Visual instructions'' field, and any additional destination names in the ''Towards'' field.
-* ''See [[global:Roundabouts/USA|Roundabouts/USA]] for detailed instructions.''
+Road numbers within brackets <span style="border:1px; border-style:solid; border-color:#fff; background:#00701E; color:#FDD206;">'''&nbsp;(A460)&nbsp;'''</span> should '''not''' be included at all as they are not directly off the junction, nor should road numbers be written in the ''Towards'' field.
-'''Naming Roundabouts'''
+In order to receive the correct turn instructions with road shields on roundabouts make sure to add the turn guidance on the '''exit turn''' from the roundabout. The turn guidance from the exit will be ''copied'' to the entry one.
-After drawing a new roundabout, it is important to '''change the road type''' to that of highest connecting road (except Freeway), and '''set the address'''. ''If the address is not set correctly, the new segments will be drawn in {{Red|red}}''.
+Editors should '''only''' be used when exits have a signed junction number.<br />
-To aid navigation instructions, roundabouts should remain '''unnamed'''. If the roundabout does have a proper, signposted name, then for this can be labelled using a 'Junction/Intersection' type Place that fills the centre of the roundabout.

-'''Common Issues With Roundabouts'''
+====Road to consider====
-* If a roundabout doesn't have a central node or === symbols around the edge, then it is not a proper roundabout. The client will give 'keep left' and 'keep right' instructions instead of 'take the nth exit'. These junctions need to be deleted and redrawn.

-* If two entry and exit segments share the same junction on the roundabout, the exit will not be counted when entering at that junction. Entry and exit segments should ''always'' be connected via separate junctions.
-* Sometimes the client will say "Take the 0th exit" for a roundabout. This is often caused by an invisible node on or within the junction, and can only be repaired by deleting and rebuilding the entire roundabout.
-* Roundabouts with a diameter of 10m or less won't be used for u-turns in a waze route (country specific config)

-Sometimes a roundabout will get modified to change its shape and function, such that it is no longer a simple a roundabout.

-One such example is the "Hamburger Roundabout", where the main carriageway goes straight through the middle of the junction. This should be drawn as if the main road was an over pass, with short ramps connecting it to the roundabout. The example here is near [http://www.waze.com/editor/?zoom=5&lat=53.74976&lon=-1.63427&layers=TBFTFTTTFTTFTTTTFTTTTFT&segments=123129272 M62 Junction 27] (Leeds).
