Mapping 6+ lane freeways

(1/15) > >>

froggie:
Pursuant to a thread on AARoads, Jayhawk had an idea to use TM to map out those freeways in the US (and, theoretically, any country we have in TM) that have 6 or more through lanes.  I'm intending to start a user list on GitHub called "6lane" to map this out.

Thoughts and comments from the TM crowd are welcomed.

si404:
A perfectly grand idea. We have the database and can map stuff like that quite easily and effectively.

Markkos1992:
Ok I get this idea.  I thought we were creating a separate system or something for a second.

So would I-81 around Harrisburg be:

1.  PA I-81 59 70

or


2.  PA I-81 57 72

due to there only being 4 thru lanes on I-81 through both the PA 581 and I-83 interchanges?

Jim:
Sounds like a nice unintentional feature.  And with the 6lane.list file living in GitHub, people can contribute concurrently via pull requests.

There are maps and one can even go through each route. Legend: red = 4 lanes, violet = 6 lanes.
