Splitting Roads
Ok fellow wazers. Besides what type of road a road is this has got to be the second most ask question about editing roads. So I found a decent intersection here that maybe we can discuss the pros and cons of when to split roads or not.

It is my hope to come to some sort of guidelines (other than personal preference) about when to split roads or not.
There are two roads in this link Billy Graham Pkwy and W Tyvola Rd
So the question becomes:
Split both, Split one or the other, or Split neither?
Some notes, I personally have not cleaned up any of the map problem errors that are in this area. There are very few errors surronding this area. The only editing I have done so far to this intersection is to change W Tyvola Rd to a primary with separating line and remove a few excess junctions.
My personal opinion on these two roads:
Billy Graham Pkwy - Should be split into two roads. The median is wide and the gps points support a separate road. But with no map merger errors I question why I should split it.
Tyvola Rd - It seems that this road does support splitting into two roads. The gps points are clearly seperated. The road is 5 lanes across, but the middle lane is a turn lane which can be handle by either a separated road or non-separated road. If you follow this road to the south/east it then becomes a divided road with a median which can further complicate the decision process.
I look forward to the discussion.
