Correct way to name Numbered Highways

[Gela]

I contacted the RER forum, and the correct way to name numbered highways, as they mentioned, is as follows:

{Language} {Road Abbreviation Initials} {Route Number}, Primary, Numbered Highway

{Language} {Full Name of Road, if any}, Official

For example,

Spanish, PR 25, Primary, Numbered Highway 

Spanish, Avenida de la Constitución, Official

 

[Gela]

Turns out my own example had an exception! That road has two names, so the new example is as follows:

Spanish, PR 25, Primary, Numbered Highway 

Spanish, Avenida de la Constitución, Obscure

Spanish, Avenida Ponce de León, Official

[Roca Roca]

Hummmm, OK.

Got a clarification from the GMM team. Here you go :)

In order to work correctly, the
name that has the Numbered Highway type should have *only* that type and
no other. So, for instance:

Puerto Rico 1 (English) (Numbered Highway)

Then you decide the Primary/Local/Official based on the other names on the
feature. Keep in mind that the same name can have all three types. (You
just can't have a name that is both Primary and Obscure.)

For the PR-X roads, the best format is Puerto Rico X, as for general
convention Puerto Rico should follow the US highway naming conventions as
in this help page: http://goo.gl/sZSYR.

Hope that helps!
