Thanks for the latest update :).

Aruba is missing the country assignment in the HB though.
I think the systems.csv entry is incorrect:

A little correction about the (German) system names:
auts - Austria Schnellstraßen
autb - Austria Bundesstraßen **
deub - Germany Bundesstraßen

Straße is with sharp S in Germany and Austria. Please correct the name of the auts system which is already active.
Sharp S is generally not used in Switzerland though:

chen - Switzerland Autostrassen

Quote
(though most are A roads, IIRC)

https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liste_der_Nationalstrassen_der_Schweiz

** Austrian Bundesstraßen were federal roads till 2002. They are state-owned roads now but still signed with 'B' (except Vorarlberg where they are signed with 'L' now). The official name is 'Landesstraßen B'. In Vienna, they are called 'Hauptstraßen B'.

So the bloody spelling reform that meant I had to use different spelling to what I had learnt in previous years when it came to my final year in school (when they learnt that the exams wasn't going to allow spellings that had been wrong for the past 6 years, rather than deny the 1996 reforms had happened, as they exam board had done in previous years, and demand pre-reform spelling) got overturned? :'(

Would be great if Faroe, Iceland, Norway and Sweden could be the next systems done because they are the only countries which don't appear in the highway browser. Sweden and Norway only appear if you enter the (correct but unknown) country code in the region filter box :).

I'd imagine that the issue of country codes will be sorted will be before the Swedish and Norwegian systems (and SWE and NOR are not only ISO-3116-3, but really obvious).

Unlike most of the European systems I've added recently, I can't knock any of these out in 2 hours, save maybe the Faroe Islands. They are big, complex, slightly confusing (esp Norway where its hard to discern between Rv and former Rv), and existing routes aren't much help (unlike Pakistan and Iran Asian Highways where tier 1 systems gave a lot of route mileage, or most of the recent Europe tier 4 systems, where E Roads run concurrent with a lot of the roads). Norway has mountains and ferries, Iceland has mountains, Sweden is simply huge.

A more accessible list, or a drop down box (like CHM had), or something.

I'm trying to work on eursf additions in Sweden and Norway, but the Scandinavians are nowhere near as good at naming their motorways as the Danes or Finns, so it's proving hard going to get them. That said, that will only give some urban roads and parts of Rv40 as additional clinched routes.

Got it. I thought you mean it could be sorted short-term because anyone is working on it ;).

Because I was feeling nice, I outlined the Rv roads in Sweden and Norway today (mostly only points where they intersect other routes), making a start on those systems. Sweden was tedium, Norway was annoying in other ways.

If I've figured out GitHub one day and deub will be finished, I'd like to work on other systems. My favorites are: autb, chen and maybe czei.
If you wanna make whole Europe, it's ok though.

btw: I think beln is in development, isn't it? Minimum, there are some files but it's still commented (by accident?).

chen probably isn't the right one (N roads don't seem to be signed). I've deliberately left off the systems closer to Germany since you've come on board (including doing less work on poldk, though I've picked that back up with a couple of routes properly done this week).

It was me testing the water, though I wasn't that impressed (hence why norrv, svng, srbb, hunf and (soon) svki have been drafted since last time I touched it). If you want to do systems that have a start made, but aren't preview level, then just say so.
Title: Re: Europe Tier-4 systems progress superthread
Post by: michih on June 14, 2016, 04:39:03 pm
Ok, I appreciate that you've already left off the systems of my neighboring countries but I think you should complete poldk because it's very advanced.
I remember that you didn't like swerv. I like Sweden though :). On the other hand, it's still a long way to complete deub...
Title: Re: Europe Tier-4 systems progress superthread

Here's a map of current status.
(https://s31.postimg.org/qw0onk9xn/TME.png)

The difference between the orange and the lighter yellow is whether there's a discussion about review here. To avoid clutter and overload, I'm trying to keep the number of systems I'm more actively seeking opinion on at any one time down.

What, you mean the one country who officially congratulated us for asking the populus what they thought on Thursday? I would happily honour them for their show of support and solidarity with the people of the UK with making them the subject my next system, though there's some annoying complications (like roads can be second-tier with the same number but white not yellow signs and streetview isn't great help and it's all confusing), and I kind of want to work my way through getting active the current systems I have in preview rather than make new ones.

Oh, you meant the football and how we lost to a decent team in the knockout rounds trying the same tactics as we did in the worst side in the competition which didn't work then, and didn't work this evening either? We had lost it before kick off (and even with better tactics would have struggled)! And we'll see if you like it when they beat you (or, lets face it, Italy) to reach a final with Wales.  :P

It might do - I've found '28' markers on the main road through Vaduz on Michelin (and the less reliable Google) Maps, with German wikipedia (https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hauptstrasse_28) saying it's real, but part of the Swiss system (H16 also enters the principality, and is almost certainly the route you used across the country). Wegenwiki says that the road numbers are administrative only and not signed. A lot of maps I found on a quick google search aren't very up-to-date (eg this one with pre-85 E roads on it (http://www.maps-of-europe.net/maps/maps-of-liechtenstein/detailed-road-map-of-liechtenstein.jpg)).

I'll leave it for Michael to find out more - he's expressed interest in doing Swiss roads, and meine Deutche ist nicht sehr gut, aber seine ist Wunderbar!

^^ I'll look into it after deub completion (2-digit H roads are signed (https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liste_der_Hauptstrassen_der_Schweiz)). I hope that I don't have to do "itass" first... Like Si's "iclth" dilemma. Btw: cool name it ass... ;)

deub has been merged and is preview now, please update the list of the first post.
I work on cheh now. It's a small system, just H1 to H30. Source (https://www.admin.ch/opc/de/classified-compilation/19910382/index.html#app2) (indicated by wikipedia article, see previous post).

Afterwards, I'd like to start autb, czei or swer (if possible).

The latter is already in dev (outlined) and I have a lot of routes traveled there which I'd like to see on my map :). I could complete the system but I would need the source (link) of a list or map with relevant routes.

Should swer routes be called R or Rv? I think it was Rv and has been partially* replaced by R now, hasn't it?

*For instance, E roads still have Rv...

After completion of cheh and swer, I'll try to bring deub to "ready to review".

R. And it's mere laziness that I've not yet changed the E Roads. (Lv -> L also). It's what Swedes use, unlike their Finnish and Norwegian friends.

I agree that a break is helpful. That's what I currently do :). deub is in "preview" but not yet "ready to review" according to your classification :). I have not yet any info about B28 and some stretches are still to be downgraded (which should mostly happen in 2015/16). I wanna add locations to all AST routes, I have to read the waypoint name rules again and check my names selected. In additon, I've not yet added my sources (http://tm.teresco.org/credits.php) and I'm not sure if I should really add all links.

I'm using Europe here as UNECE and Asia/Pacific as UNESCAP. Most of those systems (not Israel) are in countries in both organisations, but I've put them here as, while all (bar Israel's) UNECE countries' tier 1 systems are active and the tier 3 system is too, none (but turo) UNESCAP tier 1 systems are active, nor is the tier 3 system. It would look a bit odd to have tier 4 systems started when all but one of the tier 1 systems (turo) aren't active (though I do have Sri Lanka and Cambodia sketched out to a certain extent).

There are already some files on github. If I'm not mistaken the systems are called frolv and isls?
@Si: A little note would be nice like you've done for Kazakhstan or Kyrgyzstan :)

beln - Belgium Nationale Wegen
bihm - Bosnia and Herzegovina Magistralni Put
nldn - Netherlands Niet-Autosnelwegen
prtip - Portugal Itinerários Principais

It seems that there are also some files on github. Belgium was to test the water but I don't know about the others.

Nevertheless, I've plotted autb, cheh, czei, deub and swer. Sweden is close to be ready for a peer-review, I just wanna make a final review once my suggested eursf candidates (https://github.com/TravelMapping/HighwayData/pull/746) have been approved or dismissed. The reviews of the other systems depend on that decision and a potential euror/eurap (http://tm.teresco.org/forum/index.php?topic=376.msg2161#msg2161) GO or rejection.


I don't know how much effort I have to spend for getting my preview systems active. Maybe I have a lot to do, maybe just some tweaks. That's why I thought about future systems I could draft. My favorites are:
- beln (already started)
- nldn (already started)
- hrvd

I would need some info about beln and nldn status though.
I think Croatian Državna cesta (https://hr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dr%C5%BEavne_ceste_u_Hrvatskoj) comprise about 220 D roads from D1 to D536.

A note for these two "need more info" and (just for Iceland) "waiting in the hopes sanity comes to their road numbering and signing that means that what roads are important ones and what ones aren't are signed differently (as is meant to be the case now), but most of all consistantly".

Portugal was too (abandoned as it's rather a mess). BiH is to redo all their roads in 2018, though the drafts of the current system are reasonably complete. Netherlands has sub-100 routes done, plus one or two others. I made a start on Holland and Zealand (and grouped routes roughly by province) but most files are empty - it's a case of taking a look and seeing what's there, deleting what you don't want, keeping what you do, restructuring the folders as you see fit.

Leave Croatia for after Belgium and Netherlands and have a go at them first.

Sanity comes their road numbering... :) I'm quite confident of seeing this happen before Spain will have a road numbering system one can explain on just one page of paper which will most likely happen before there will be no construction site on German Autobahns for just one day...

Am I right about the system names?

Sorry, I don't get it. Does that mean bihm could get active soon or do you wanna wait till BiH has done the announced renumbering? German dedication procedure of B road began in Mid of 1980s and was finally planned to be completed by late 2015 except the segments where construction works are pending (there are projects which will still take more than 10 years) and I've recently realized that there is minimum one segments which has been rededicated to L road although it was not on the official list... :( That's why I wanna postpone activation of deub...

Netherlands has sub-100 routes done, plus one or two others. I made a start on Holland and Zealand (and grouped routes roughly by province) but most files are empty - it's a case of taking a look and seeing what's there, deleting what you don't want, keeping what you do, restructuring the folders as you see fit.

Is there any need for the folders? Netherlands are not dedived to provinces on TM like US, India, Canada or China. I think a plain structure should be the final look, shouldn't it?

Leave Croatia for after Belgium and Netherlands and have a go at them first.

I made D1 yesterday. It seems that OSM and wikipedia data is quite good for Croatia. Minium for D1... Southern E71 was totally wrong though. There's no D62 or D511 but B56. Dunno, maybe there has been a renumbering in the last years...

I'll proceed with Belgium though but with a lower pace :)

Am I right about the system names?
I honestly don't know what's right, through lack of sources for Faeroe Islands, and conflicting sources for Iceland.
Quote
Does that mean bihm could get active soon or do you wanna wait till BiH has done the announced renumbering?
Kind of both - bihm could get preview soon if I pulled my fingers out. But I can't really be bothered as they will be all changing before too long.
Quote
I mean, we could wait ages for BiH.
Not at all - they made listings of routes some years back, and so they are in that transition period. The other countries in the area have successfully renumbered - Germany is the exception to the efficient changes of the other countries.

No, they have always used the 'Convertable Mark' that was pegged to the Deutsche Mark at parity and now the Euro at the rate the DM was.

It's not complete, it's about half-ready to go to preview.

No, the folders were merely so I could do an area at a time and work across the country, rather than go numerically, it just seemed easier when I made a start to do that, rather than working in strict numerical order.

Southern E71 was totally wrong though.
Really? Ah, some labels are now wrong. Hardly 'totally wrong'!

2 out of 3 waypoint labels were wrong... btw: I think there should be an additional waypoint just east of D8 roundabout, shouldn't it. The interchange has 3 ramps only and the waypoint location would be "far to the east" at the next underpass though...

To be honest, I think it looks worse compared to brown: http://tm.teresco.org/user/mapview.php?u=michih&rg=CZE&colors=tier4:rgb(255,165,0):rgb(255,165,0).

I've added a new color based on the states of Si's map from June 2016 (http://tm.teresco.org/forum/index.php?topic=131.msg1569#msg1569):
Black=not in HB, Red=devel, Orange=preview, Chocolate=ready to review, Green=active

Current chocolate systems are:
- bgri (Bulgaria)
- deub (Germany)
- norrv (Norway)
- poldk (Poland)
- svng (Slovenia)
- swer (Sweden)

@Si: mdam (Moldova) is indicated as "ready to review" on your map but there's no corresponding thread. Is it not ready to review or is just a thread missing?

You are right it looks awful, but thankfully it's rendered as a (default?) pinkish red (http://tm.teresco.org/user/mapview.php?u=si404&rg=ENG) that works well. I went with orange as most systems I gave the colour to use red or yellow shields for them (green and blue having been taken for motorways and E roads, though obviously many European countries have motorways signed in green), but the pinkish red gives contrast, looks good, and isn't tourist-route brown, so I'd like to go for that.

Neither really - it's ready, but the thread isn't missing as I'd rather prioritize other systems. If you want to review it then go for it!

There are only 7 color names that will be honored by TM web code:

Code: [Select]
colorCodes[0] = { name: "blue", unclinched: "rgb(100,100,255)", clinched: "rgb(0,0,255)" };
colorCodes[1] = { name: "brown", unclinched: "rgb(153,152,102)", clinched: "rgb(153,102,0)" };
colorCodes[2] = { name: "red", unclinched: "rgb(255,100,100)", clinched: "rgb(255,0,0)" };
colorCodes[3] = { name: "yellow", unclinched: "rgb(255,255,128)", clinched: "rgb(225,225,0)" };
colorCodes[4] = { name: "teal", unclinched: "rgb(100,200,200)", clinched: "rgb(0,200,200)" };
colorCodes[5] = { name: "green", unclinched: "rgb(100,255,100)", clinched: "rgb(0,255,0)" };
colorCodes[6] = { name: "magenta", unclinched: "rgb(255,100,255)", clinched: "rgb(255,0,255)" };

I am not sure why it would be pink if other color names are specified, but I recommend staying with this list unless/until new color names are added to the above array.  I am open to more colors if there's a compelling reason to do so.
Title: Re: Europe Tier-4 systems progress superthread (UNECE)
Post by: michih on September 06, 2016, 11:26:13 am
Thanks for the replies. I think we should use "honored" color because the current color might change by accident if the web site development proceeds.
In addition, we should use the same colors for whole Europe.

I think tier 1-3 is beyond dispute for Europe:
tier 1 = blue
tier 2 = teal
tier 3 = green

Red (http://tm.teresco.org/user/mapview.php?u=si404&rg=ENG&colors=tier4:rgb(255,100,100):rgb(255,0,0)) is not (or rarly) used for signage in Europe and it sticks out too much for a tier 4 system compared to tier 1-3.
Brown is the typical color for tourist routes and eventually an option for my suggested tier 5 "eurap" system?

There are 3 options left:
1. Yellow (http://tm.teresco.org/user/mapview.php?u=si404&rg=ENG&colors=tier4:rgb(255,255,128):rgb(225,225,0)) (looks a little bit over the top, maybe "gold" is more restrained?)
2. Magenta (http://tm.teresco.org/user/mapview.php?u=si404&rg=ENG&colors=tier4:rgb(255,100,255):rgb(255,0,255)) (sticks a little out like red though)
3. Jim would kindly add something like "pink (http://tm.teresco.org/user/mapview.php?u=si404&rg=ENG)" (well, I think it's pink or salmon for clinched and brown for unclinched segments)

If we had the options, we could also make a poll to get a final decision...

Send me color codes you like (you can experiment with custom colors for any using query string parameters) and I can add more very easily.  However, I do think we want some consistency across all systems where appropriate.

Title: Re: Europe Tier-4 systems progress superthread (UNECE)
Post by: si404 on September 06, 2016, 07:24:40 pm
I like the salmon/pink. Red and magenta are too strong, brown is for tourist routes and yellow/gold doesn't work too well. The pink does go with a lot of europe tier 4 signs - roudn, fran, ltua, lvaa, finvt, alavt, estt, prtip and poldk all have red shields/cartouches (as will espa) and GB maps A roads in green or red, and green is taken by eure. Therefore a reddish hue is not out of sync with signage, and the pinkness means it will not be over-dominant.
Title: Re: Europe Tier-4 systems progress superthread (UNECE)
Post by: michih on September 07, 2016, 04:06:29 pm
I used a color picker and pink (http://tm.teresco.org/user/mapview.php?u=si404&rg=ENG) should have these parameter: http://tm.teresco.org/user/mapview.php?u=si404&rg=ENG&colors=tier4:rgb(238,238,238):rgb(255,147,147).
However, it looks different and the color picker displays a different code :(

I've figured out a code which results in a less-dominant color (I think it's better than "pink"):
http://tm.teresco.org/user/mapview.php?u=si404&rg=ENG&colors=tier4:rgb(200,200,200):rgb(255,160,122)

Code: [Select]
colorCodes[7] = { name: "lightsalmon", unclinched: "rgb(200,200,200)", clinched: "rgb(255,160,122)" };
I think if Si agrees, we could go for it. The new color should be used for all European tier 4 systems.

I've updated the list of the first post:
- hrvd (Croatia Državna Cesta) is in development now.
- grceo (Greece Ethniki Odos) has some routes drafted now.


I've read the wikipedia article about Russian federal highways (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russian_federal_highways). It seems, that all M roads have names which should be added to the "city" column of the csv files.

The system designation has been changed and the old numbering is still valid till the end of 2017, please refer to the introduction of the Russian wikipedia article (https://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D0%90%D0%B2%D1%82%D0%BE%D0%BC%D0%BE%D0%B1%D0%B8%D0%BB%D1%8C%D0%BD%D1%8B%D0%B5_%D0%B4%D0%BE%D1%80%D0%BE%D0%B3%D0%B8_%D0%A0%D0%BE%D1%81%D1%81%D0%B8%D0%B8_%D1%84%D0%B5%D0%B4%D0%B5%D1%80%D0%B0%D0%BB%D1%8C%D0%BD%D0%BE%D0%B3%D0%BE_%D0%B7%D0%BD%D0%B0%D1%87%D0%B5%D0%BD%D0%B8%D1%8F#.D0.90.D0.B2.D1.82.D0.BE.D0.BC.D0.BE.D0.B1.D0.B8.D0.BB.D1.8C.D0.BD.D1.8B.D0.B5_.D0.B4.D0.BE.D1.80.D0.BE.D0.B3.D0.B8_.D0.BE.D0.B1.D1.89.D0.B5.D0.B3.D0.BE_.D0.BF.D0.BE.D0.BB.D1.8C.D0.B7.D0.BE.D0.B2.D0.B0.D0.BD.D0.B8.D1.8F_.D1.84.D0.B5.D0.B4.D0.B5.D1.80.D0.B0.D0.BB.D1.8C.D0.BD.D0.BE.D0.B3.D0.BE_.D0.B7.D0.BD.D0.B0.D1.87.D0.B5.D0.BD.D0.B8.D1.8F). The new federal highway system has M, R and A roads. I think it's similar to Belgian N and R roads and both should be future tier 4 too (rusr and rusa). The Russian wikipedia has only one table for M, R and A roads. Any objections?

Generally, M, R and A roads could partially have motorway standard. If I'm not mistaken, these should be added to eursf or a potential future asisf system like it's done for Norway, Sweden or Denmark.

@Si: Thanks for adding the rusm route names and bringing the system to preview status but why have you used quotation marks? Looks odd...
I think M5Ore and M7Per city names should be separated by comma instead of brackets, e.g. (Volga, Perm). Brackets within brackets look ugly.

systems.csv has two rusm devel system entries (commented) and another rusm in preview. I think you wanna have rusr and rusa commented in devel?
Why should rusa be a tier 5 system only?

With regards to Iceland, the following link may be of use:
http://vegasja.vegagerdin.is/eng/

This map definitively shows the extent of Federal road maintenance and, because it is both zoomable and GIS based, Lat/Lon coordinates can be obtained from it. Based on my recent travel around Iceland I can safely say that there aren't any sections of numbered road which are signed but not federally maintained. There are, however, some unsigned numbers here and there which would need to be weeded out.

If no one else wants to take on the task of compiling route data for the HB, I may attempt to start doing so based on this.

I'm going to be omitting the F-prefix roads from this system. Use of these roads is limited to 4WD vehicles with high ground clearance both by law and by physical practicality, so they really are something separate. May be the subject of a future second system.

I just hope they're added soon along with autonomical roads, they are a big part of the road network of my country and I couldn't believe that they hadn't been added yet.

If you want them added, you gotta step up and help out with them yourself. That's how I got started with maintaining Washington state. It was clear nobody was going to fix any of the issues I reported, so the only way they were going to get fixed is if I took over maintenance of Washington. If you're interested in helping out, I would suggest PMing Jim.

These are in the same situation of me just not caring enough to do further work on it. Maybe they'll get done next year, but something would need to change. It would be less annoying if there was a Latin-alphabet open-source tile-mapping (like MQ Open Data) that I could use. Greece is a higher priority than Russia.

Did I? I guess it's well defined and mapped and only about 100 routes (albeit often fairly long routes - counteracted by having a fair few E Roads/Asian highways concurrent with the network), so shouldn't be a turd on that front.

turd - Turkey Devlet Yolları (---)

It's a very low priority for me.

For me too but it's on the European list although I wish it wouldn't :D

I see that nobody is in charge of itass. Do you want me to take care of it?

Geduld!* Maintenance is done by region not by system. Si is responsible for Italy (http://tm.teresco.org/forum/index.php?topic=42). He should usually start drafting itass one day. I guess he still has a lot of other systems started and don't wanna interupt that work?!

It's generally not favored that a new contributor starts drafting a system. See "How to Participate" on the start page (http://tm.teresco.org/).


We had a similar situation with espn (http://tm.teresco.org/forum/index.php?topic=1951.0) earlier this year. I've drafted the system (because I wanted to travel Spain in May) but Si is still responsible for maintenance. Pepe helped by checking Google Street View if the routes are really signed in the field.

I'd love to have itass drafted because I also have some mileage there but I'm quite busy with Belgium Route Nationale / Gewestwegen which is also a tier 4 system (= similar priority). In addition, I've started to draft the German Landesstraßen system and Norway Primære Fylkesveier.

If Si doesn't want to start itass "soon" (this year?) you could help like Pepe did and check GSV and I could draft the system. You could directly start reporting in the itass thread (http://tm.teresco.org/forum/index.php?topic=2095.0) where each route begins and ends and I could start drafting the routes approximately in September when beln is done.

*When I was in Torino for the first time, I made a workshop with my Italian colleague. Unfortunately our software wasn't stable and crashed quite often. I was impatient and always wanted to kill the process but Guiseppe said that our software sometimes needs more time and he told me a new "Italian" word: Geduld! :D

I'm aiming to make a start on itass some point this week.

I didn't know that. I didn't mean to put any pressure :)

If you ever need me, just ask :)

grceo - Greece Ethniki Odos (si404)

Started.

Quote
rusr - Russia Regional Roads (system not fully signed until 2018) (si404)
rusa - Russia Access Roads (system not fully signed until 2018) (si404)

I guess Si will draft the remaining routes in 2018 or once GSV is updated?
These are in the same situation of me just not caring enough to do further work on it. Maybe they'll get done next year, but something would need to change. It would be less annoying if there was a Latin-alphabet open-source tile-mapping (like MQ Open Data) that I could use. Greece is a higher priority than Russia.

Here Maps uses Latin-alphabet and minimum the Greek and Russian village names are shown. You might draft the routes in the wpt editor with numbers and load them in the TM HB with Here Maps layer.... Still painful but better than now...

That sounds like far more hard work than transliteration, which I can do with Greek and Cyrillic reasonably quickly (especially once I get into it).

With the next pull request from my branch, grceo will be available to preview!

Three systems left to get to that level - turd, cypd (Northern Cyprus D roads, which I discovered recently on OSM, despite them being 5 years old. Scant information on it though*) and rusr.

And four to get from preview active - beln (any reason why this hasn't?), itass (renationalisation of many routes as well as various other issues at play), grceo and rusa.


If we ignore the Eurasian countries, that's all at preview, and just three not active.  8)


*There might be a Uzbekistani post-soviet system, but I similarly can't much info, and it seems to be concurrent with the residual soviet systems.

Cool, panda80 has recently asked about it and I also plan to visit Greece next spring... :)

And four to get from preview active - beln (any reason why this hasn't?)

You've peer-reviewed 800s and 900s (http://forum.travelmapping.net/index.php?topic=2138) but N1-N799 are still open. And I've decided to add routes which might be unsigned (I couldn't find any evidence when drafting the routes) but are confirmed by GM and OSM, see readme (https://github.com/TravelMapping/HighwayData/blob/master/hwy_data/BEL/beln/README.md). If you wanna complete the peer-review I could add the routes beforehand, maybe by late December after activating deubyst and czeii. Just let me know...

itass (renationalisation of many routes as well as various other issues at play), grceo and rusa.

I don't plan to visit Russia (I'd love to do but not by car from home - not anytime "soon") but I'll plan to take the ferry from southern Italy to Greece and I'd like to catch up as much as possible in Italy too :) No pressure though  8)

Is any of your systems (European prefered) ready for peer-review?

With activation of the Turkey Devlet Yolları system (thanks to panda80 for developing and si404 for reviewing), only Italy Strada Statale, Northern Cyprus and some former soviet region systems are left in UNECE-route-countries*

*UNECE countries is not correct since USA, Canada and others are also UNECE members (United Nations Economic Commission for Europe)

cypd - Cyprus Devlet Yolları (introduced to northern Cyprus in 2013, not much information about it)
itass - Italy Strada Statale (si404) reviewer: michih
rusr - Russia Regional Roads (si404)
rusa - Russia Access Roads (si404)
uzbn - Uzbekistan ??? (https://orexca.com/rus/uzbekistan_roads.shtml)

btw: The link to the Usbek road list is dead.

Why are both tier 4 now?
And what's different for Åland?

Why are both tier 4 now?
To make way for the true Tier 5 system - finst.

An equivalent would be Ireland where routes 1-50 are National Primary, and 51-99 are National Secondary (though the distinction, unlike Finland, isn't signed) and 100-999 are Regional.

Valtatiet (1-39, white on red) are National Roads / Staatsstraßen
Kantatiet (40-99, black on yellow) are Main Roads / Hauptstraße
Seututiet (100-999, black on white) are Regional Roads / Regionalstraßen

While they are two different systems, they are both of tier 4 level.

And what's different for Åland?
The second tier roads are much less important than on the mainland.

Their system names are different, which I'll fix (might go with Swedish names, rather than the Finnish names I give - more research needed as of now).
1-digit roads (Päätie) have their mainland equivalent as Valtatiet (though are probably the equivalent of Kantatiet in importance) - white on red
2-digit roads (Tie) have their mainland equivalent as Yhdystie (though are probably the equivalent of Seututiet in importance) - white on blue

List of not yet active tier 4 systems in Europe:

bihm - Bosnia and Herzegovina Magistralni Put (si404) reviewer: t.b.d. (system in place, but then Republic Srpska went and renumbered all their roads)
itass - Italy Strada Statale (si404) reviewer: michih (many routes were transferred back to ANAS; system must be reworked)
rusr - Russia Regional Roads (si404) reviewer: t.b.d.
rusa - Russia Access Roads (si404) reviewer: t.b.d.
uzbn - Uzbekistan ??? (https://orexca.com/rus/uzbekistan_roads.shtml)

I have added a note to Italy and just realized that si404 asked for another peer-review for BIH. I think it is not necessary to perform a full review, is it? I think drafting the bihr tier 5 system down the road is also kinda review. We might add a note that the system is not yet fully signed?

I think Russia and Uzbekistan are low priority - we focus on regions where we have most TM travelers.
