In general, I think most people will agree in most cases that Waze Freeway = Limited Access. The other types seem to be open to interpretation and not locked into design specs (as an exaggeration, otherwise states in the south would have no Major Hwys and states in the north east would have no Minor Hwys ) but Freeway seems to be the most connected to a physical characteristic.PhantomSoul wrote:PS - To me, limited access highway (or freeway) is the most obvious type and means two things: 1) No intersections, whether signaled or not, and 2) No store driveways that are not partitioned off into a discrete service road.
This makes roads like SR-24 (east of I-287) and SR-18 (south of US-9) and all interstates Waze Freeways, while roads like US-1, SR-17, or SR-4 (east of SR-208) and SR-208 would be Waze Major Highways because they either have intersections or non-partitioned-off driveways/direct turns into neighboring subdivision streets.
So I hope your SR-24 and SR-18 examples are still shown as Freeways as I set them in the past
