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 above 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 &  Primary Street  B-Roads  A4030   B4121 
  •  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 then 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 may be mapped for the time when this may be available.

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 using road shields in the Visual instructions field, and written destination names 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 not use the exit sign arrows.
