Hi ChehrehBargi, thank you for informing me and removing the connection.

Thank you, I will keep that in mind.

Thank you for notifying me. I fixed a duplicated road.

Hi Marych, Oltrarno is no longer active so I will respond for them. I’ve aligned the road with reference to the GPS tracks. Thanks for bringing this up.

We follow local classification guidelines and things like the Highway Tag Africa page, when applicable. When local guidelines do not exist we follow the global classification guidelines and whatever trend exists in the country. I talked to sjdvda via private message before this changeset was made.

I think that different reasoning needs to be used in Mauritius because it is a relatively small island: what is a primary road in the US or Germany will not be the same as a primary road in an isolated road network. The B9 seems to be the most important road that travels through this area of Mauritius.

Let me know what you think.

I see your point about the B16 and have changed it back to secondary. Since there doesn’t seem to be an agreed upon classification scheme in Mauritius I’m going to avoid changing classifications here.

Hi kartonage, thanks for letting me know about the RDA classifications! I see how it is easier to agree on classifications when everyone is following a single source. I just don’t think that the government classification will always match the overall road importance, which the wiki says OSM classification should be based off of: highway=*. To me it seemed like the B16 links larger towns just as much as the A5 or the B15. You have more local background than me so I would not be opposed if you changed it back to secondary. Again, thanks for reaching out.

Thanks for making the edits for RasDashen. We will be aware of this information going forward.
