Comment from Carnildo
Not sure I agree with a couple of these changes.
* Wells Road/Walker Road is not a major route between anywhere and anywhere -- according to the county's data, it sees less than 400 cars a day. Most traffic from Malden heads to Rosalia, and from there either north to Spokane or south to Colefax.
* Sunset Highway/Sunset Boulevard is effectively the direct route between Airway Heights and downtown Spokane, and sees around 10,000 vehicles a day.

Comment from Oregonian3
Wells Road was pretty much the last road I upgraded to secondary, as the route from Cheney to Malden. I wouldn't object if someone else changed it back to secondary.
Sunset Highway, I'm more inclined to say my change was justified. Definitely secondary, but I can't see how it would be primary when I-90 is a faster route that's directly adjacent, meaning that Sunset only really serves local traffic. And 10000 isn't that many vehicles for a major metro area (most of the primary roads in Spokane have AADTs of over 20000)

Sunset isn't faster, but it's safer: the freeway on-ramps in downtown Spokane are uphill climbs with very short merges. Since it's only a minute or two longer, this draws off a lot of traffic that would otherwise take westbound I-90.

Ah, that is a fair point. Perhaps it would make sense to upgrade the westbound lanes to primary while keeping the eastbound lanes at secondary then between Maple/Walnut and US 2 (since the road has split carriageways for part of it)?
