FC Conversion
Hello fellow Nevada Wazers. This is particular to the Vegas area as we try this Functional Classification conversion. It will provide a definitive guide to what road types should be, in conjunction with official state maps, provided by NDOT and their FC maps.
There has been much discussion and debate, but I think this will provide a positive product experience. I don't know how many users use the map editor color scheme anyways, so the average user may never see a change anyways. This is to address the disconnect with what road type selections should be, and to help facilitate better routing as a by product. Will it change anything else, not really, but hopefully the better user experience will be a result.
Here are some links to our resources so you know that me and other area managers are not just making this up.

I hope this helps explains the direction we are going with the map editing here lately, so that we are on the same page, and a way to share any issues we come across in the process.
