Roads

The Jamaican road network is quite extensive and varied. To adequately capture the complexities the following tagging scheme is suggested. In addition the surface tag can be applied to specify the type of surfacing. This is particularly useful to record unsurfaced roads.

Type	Description	Suggested tags
Highway2000	Modern freeways	highway=trunk + ref= + name=
A	Older main roads that still represent primary routes	highway=primary + ref=A#
B	Secondary routes	highway=secondary + ref=B#
Parochial	Roads maintained by the parishes	highway=tertiary + designation=parochial + name=
Parochial	Smaller or less direct roads that are also maintained by the parishes	highway=unclassified + designation=parochial + name=
Unclassified	Other roads outside of residential areas that aren't maintained by the parishes	highway=unclassified, name=
