Single Track roads.
Have we got a policy on how single track roads should be mapped? There are loads in my area, south Buckinghamshire / south west Hertfordshire and I know most of the ones that are useful and those to avoid. However you don't need to stray too far from your home area to get routed down some that end up being more trouble than they are worth.
When I'm in my old Land Rover Defender I don't mind hitting a few massive pot holes and having hedges scraping down the side and luckily, when other drivers see a Defender coming they tend to give me right of way and back up but when I'm in my proper car I'd rather avoid narrow single track roads completely.
Should the really badly pot holed and very narrow ones be mapped as dirt roads, or at least a short section in the middle like this example, that way anyone who has the option set to avoid long dirt roads can use them whilst others will get routed on better roads?
