Federale, shtetërore dhe rrugët e qarkut mund të ndërtohet në mënyrë të ndryshme edhe në kohën e tyre (të gjerë dhe të ngushta përmes rrugëve lëvizëse), por ata janë treguar vazhdimisht në hartë në bazë të ngarkesës së tyre të trafikut.

Në raste të veçanta ajo mund të ndodhë që e ka një rrugë të qarkut të mirë të zhvilluar një peshë më të lartë se një rrugë trafiku vend të ngushtë.Në këtë rast ajo është e justifikuar për të klasifikuar në bazë të ngarkesës rrugën e tyre të trafikut.

Edhe në ato shtete ku nuk ka rrugë zyrtare klasifikimit, klasifikimi varet nga ngarkesa e trafikut dhe kushtet e zhvillimit të rrugës.

Roads
This group lists the 7 main tags for the road network, from most to least functionally important for motor vehicle traffic.
highway	motorway		Një qasje e kufizuar e madhe autostradë ndarë, zakonisht me 2 ose më shumë korsi emergjence duke plus shpatulla të vështirë. Equivalent to the Freeway, Autobahn, etc.. Barabartë me të pa pagesë, autostradë, etj.
highway	trunk		Rrugë të rëndësishme që nuk janë rrugët. Typically maintained by central, not local government. Zakonisht mbahet nga qendrore, jo të qeverisë lokale. Need not necessarily be a divided highway. Nuk duhet domosdoshmërisht të jetë një autostradë e ndarë. In the UK, all green signed "A" roads are, in OSM, classed as 'trunk'. Në Mbretërinë e Bashkuar, të gjithë e gjelbër nënshkruar një rrugë janë, në OSM, klasifikuar si "trungu".
highway	primary		Administrative classification in the UK, generally linking larger towns.
highway	secondary		Administrative classification in the UK, generally linking smaller towns and villages.
highway	tertiary		The next most important roads in a country's system. (Often link smaller towns and villages)
highway	unclassified		The least important through roads in a country's system – i.e. minor roads of a lower classification than tertiary, but which serve a purpose other than access to properties. (Often link villages and hamlets.) The word 'unclassified' is a historical artefact of the UK road system and does not mean that the classification is unknown; you can use highway=road for that.
highway	residential		Roads which serve as an access to housing, without function of connecting settlements. Often lined with housing.
Link roads
highway	motorway_link		Rrugët Lidhje (sliproads / ramps) shpie në / nga një autostradë nga / për një autostradë ose rrugë klasës më të ulët. Normally with the same motorway restrictions. Normalisht me kufizimet rrugën e njëjtë.
highway	trunk_link		The link roads (sliproads/ramps) leading to/from a trunk road from/to a trunk road or lower class highway.
highway	primary_link		The link roads (sliproads/ramps) leading to/from a primary road from/to a primary road or lower class highway.
highway	secondary_link		The link roads (sliproads/ramps) leading to/from a secondary road from/to a secondary road or lower class highway.
highway	tertiary_link		The link roads (sliproads/ramps) leading to/from a tertiary road from/to a tertiary road or lower class highway.
Special road types
highway	living_street		For living streets, which are residential streets where pedestrians have legal priority over cars, speeds are kept very low.
highway	service		For access roads to, or within an industrial estate, camp site, business park, car park, alleys, etc. Can be used in conjunction with service=* to indicate the type of usage and with access=* to indicate who can use it and in what circumstances.
highway	pedestrian		For roads used mainly/exclusively for pedestrians in shopping and some residential areas which may allow access by motorised vehicles only for very limited periods of the day. To create a 'square' or 'plaza' create a closed way and tag as pedestrian and also with area=yes.
highway	track		Roads for mostly agricultural or forestry uses. To describe the quality of a track, see tracktype=*. Note: Although tracks are often rough with unpaved surfaces, this tag is not describing the quality of a road but its use. Consequently, if you want to tag a general use road, use one of the general highway values instead of track.
highway	bus_guideway		A busway where the vehicle guided by the way (though not a railway) and is not suitable for other traffic. Please note: this is not a normal bus lane, use access=no, psv=yes instead!
highway	escape		For runaway truck ramps, runaway truck lanes, emergency escape ramps, or truck arrester beds. It enables vehicles with braking failure to safely stop.
highway	raceway		A course or track for (motor) racing
highway	road		A road/way/street/motorway/etc. of unknown type. It can stand for anything ranging from a footpath to a motorway. This tag should only be used temporarily until the road/way/etc. has been properly surveyed. If you do know the road type, do not use this value, instead use one of the more specific highway=* values.
highway	busway		A dedicated roadway for bus rapid transit systems
Paths
highway	footway		For designated footpaths; i.e., mainly/exclusively for pedestrians. This includes walking tracks and gravel paths. If bicycles are allowed as well, you can indicate this by adding a bicycle=yes tag. Should not be used for paths where the primary or intended usage is unknown. Use highway=pedestrian for pedestrianised roads in shopping or residential areas and highway=track if it is usable by agricultural or similar vehicles. For ramps (sloped paths without steps), combine this tag with incline=*.
highway	bridleway		For horse riders. Pedestrians are usually also permitted, cyclists may be permitted depending on local rules/laws. Motor vehicles are forbidden.
highway	steps		For flights of steps (stairs) on footways. Use with step_count=* to indicate the number of steps
highway	corridor		For a hallway inside of a building.
highway	path		A non-specific path. Use highway=footway for paths mainly for walkers, highway=cycleway for one also usable by cyclists, highway=bridleway for ones available to horse riders as well as walkers and highway=track for ones which is passable by agriculture or similar vehicles.
highway	via_ferrata		A via ferrata is a route equipped with fixed cables, stemples, ladders, and bridges in order to increase ease and security for climbers. These via ferrata require equipment : climbing harness, shock absorber and two short lengths of rope, but do not require a long rope as for climbing.
When sidewalk/crosswalk is tagged as a separate way
footway	sidewalk		Sidewalk that runs typically along residential road. Use in combination with highway=footway or highway=path
footway	crossing		Crosswalk that connects two sidewalks on the opposite side of the road. Often recognized by painted markings on the road, road sign or traffic lights. Use in combination with highway=footway or highway=path. Useful information is presence of tactile_paving=*, wheelchair=* suitability and kerb=* represented as a node on the crosswalk way.
footway	traffic_island		The way between two crossings, safespot for pedestrians, has micromapping characteristics as a detailed alternative to =*. Use in combination with highway=footway or highway=path.

cycleway	track		A track provides a route that is separated from traffic. In the United States, this term is often used to refer to bike lanes that are separated from lanes for cars by pavement buffers, bollards, parking lanes, and curbs. Note that a cycle track may alternatively be drawn as a separate way next to the road which is tagged as highway=cycleway.
cycleway	opposite_track		Deprecated variant for ways with oneway=yes that have a cycling track going the opposite direction of normal traffic flow. Replaced by oneway:bicycle=no + cycleway:left=track/cycleway:right=track + cycleway:left:oneway=-1/cycleway:right:oneway=-1.
cycleway	share_busway		There is a bus lane that cyclists are permitted to use.
cycleway	opposite_share_busway		Deprecated variant for ways with oneway=yes that have a bus lane that cyclists are also permitted to use, and which go in the opposite direction to normal traffic flow (a "contraflow" bus lane). Replaced by oneway:bicycle=no + cycleway:left=share_busway/cycleway:right=share_busway + cycleway:left:oneway=-1/cycleway:right:oneway=-1.
cycleway	shared_lane		Cyclists share a lane with motor vehicles, there are markings reminding about this. In some places these markings are known as "sharrows" ('sharing arrows') and this is the tag to use for those.

Brunei	Controlled-access highway: Single or dual (or more) carriageway roads with no private accesses, no at-grade intersections that crosses the median (including direct U-turns), no signalised intersections and no roundabouts. This criterion excludes any intersection at the two ends of the route. In the case of a single carriageway it must be a one-way expressway at all points in time, contain at least one reversible lane, or have exactly one lane in each direction with overtaking using the lane on the opposing direction prohibited. A limited number of roads with "highway" (English) or "lebuhraya" (Malay) in their names (i.e. those that meet the above criteria) fall under this category.	Limited-access road: Single or dual (or more) carriageway roads that are similar to the criteria of a motorway, but permits for a variety of intersections, including private accesses, all at-grade and signalised intersections, and roundabbouts, and a flexible number of lanes on a single carriageway, but vehicles can only drive across the lanes in the opposite directions at designated points on the road (such as gaps in the median, if any). Most roads with "highway" (English) or "lebuhraya" (Malay) in their names fall under this category. Important, high-traffic roads connecting between towns and/or residential areas may also fall under this category. The speed limit ranges from 65 km/h on urban roads with a lot of private accesses to 100 km/h on inter-district roads with less dense traffic.	Frequently used roads within cities, towns and shopping districts, and roads connecting urban areas or urban to rural/residential areas. Usually has a speed limit between 50 km/h and 80 km/h.	Roads that are less frequently used. Roads connecting two or more rural areas without passing through an urban area fit into this category.	Less significant roads and collector roads.	Roads that do not fit in any categories listed here nor other categories. Most "simpangs" fall under the "residential" category.

Canada (Actual current tagging varies across the country, but predominantly follows these guidelines. See also alternative below)	Limited-access highway with separated carriageways, no private accesses, no signalized intersections, no at-grade intersections that cross the median, and at least 4 lanes. May or may not be part of National Highway System. May or may not be provincially-managed. (e.g. Highway 401 in Ontario, Autoroute 20 in Quebec, Gardiner Expressway in Toronto)	Provincial primary highway that does not meet freeway standards (as "primary" category to right). Designated by the joint federal-provincial Council of Ministers of Transport as comprising part of the National Highway System - Core Routes. (Map; Report with Full Inventory (PDF)). (e.g. Much of Highway 17 in Ontario, Highway 3 in BC/Alberta, Highway 7 in New Brunswick)	Provincial primary highway that does not meet freeway standards (e.g. the King's Highways [provincial highways 2 through 148] in Ontario, 100-series highways in Quebec, Highway 95 in BC).	Provincial secondary highway or county/regional road that does not meet freeway standards. In urban or suburban contexts, the most important arterial roads that are neither freeway standard nor part of a provincial highway route merit this clasification. (e.g. Yonge, Finch, Steeles etc. in Toronto, Macleod Trail in Calgary).	Tertiary roads, minor urban arterials etc.	All non-residential roads not meeting any of the above criteria.
Canada (Alternate Proposal only. Actual current tagging varies across the country.)	Rural and urban: Trunk road with separated carriageways, no private accesses, no signalized intersections, no at-grade intersections that cross the median, and at least 4 lanes.	Rural: Primary road with 110 km/h or higher effective speed, with <10 km sections of 100 km/h or higher effective speed. No non-prioritized or timer-only traffic signals.

Carretera provincial o local.  Yellow  or  Purple  signs. v. g.,  BA-634   SO-P-1102  Suelen ser de doble sentido. Son carreteras poco importantes dentro de las Comunidades Autónomas. Se identifican por ir su referencia dentro de un recuadro amarillo, que se ve en las señales de preseñalización y en los puntos kilométricos.	Carreteras asfaltadas sin denominación, fuera de poblado. Paved roads without reference, outside a settlement.
		motorroad=yes se utiliza para las Vías para automóviles, antiguamente conocidas como Vías rápidas: carreteras con limitación de acceso y que no son cortadas a nivel por ninguna otra vía. Pueden ser de doble sentido o tener calzadas separadas para cada sentido de la marcha, pero la condición esencial es la ausencia de cruces a nivel. Se usa el criterio de arriba para determinar el valor de highway=*, y se añade motorroad=yes. Nota: cualquier carretera que cumpla las condiciones se admite, aunque no tenga las señales indicadas. motorroad=yes is used for Vías para automóviles, previously known as Expressways: roads with restricted access and no level crossings at all. They might have as few as a single lane per direction in a single carriageway, but the essential condition is the lack of level crossings. Use the above classification to determine the highway=* value and add motorroad=yes. Nota: the signs themselves are not a requirement, any road matching the description for a significative length qualifies.

Venezuela See: Venezuela roads tagging (es)	Only some freeways (called "Autopista"): Dual carriageway highways divided by a physical divider with 2 or more lanes in each direction, directly connected to national roads, strictly limited access by ramps that allow speed reduction outside the main carriageway. Must not have same-level crossroads, traffic lights, roundabouts, or u-turn ramps that merge on the left-lane (usually called "Retorno"). There should be no streets or roads that connect directly to the highway if it is not through a well-defined ramp. There should also be no buildings or properties adjacent to the highway or any of its access ramps. Legally 90 km/h speed limit.	National roads network that cross the entire country connecting the most important cities.	Regional roads network that connect the most important cities and towns of each State.

Vietnam	Đường cao tốc Đường hai chiều chỉ dành cho các loại xe cơ giới, cấm xe thô sơ và người đi bộ. Tốc độ cho phép thường từ 40-80km/h. Giới hạn tốc độ được áp dụng riêng biệt cho mỗi loại xe trong từng làn đường. Mỗi chiều thường có 1-5 làn dành cho các loại ô tô và một làn riêng dành cho xe mô tô. Expressways (đường cao tốc)	Đường lớn, mật độ giao thông cao, có nhiều điểm chung với đường cao tốc nhưng chưa phải là đường cao tốc. Những loại đường này thường tương đối hiện đại. Có thể chỉ cho phép ô tô lưu thông. High-quality National Highways that are not expressways. Usually divided and with partial grade separation.	Đường trọng điểm có mật độ giao thông lớn, đóng vai trò chính trong việc đi lại giữa nhiều khu vực. Bao gồm cả quốc lộ. Đường liên xã cũng có thể tính vào loại này ở các khu vực rất hẻo lánh. National Highways (quốc lộ/QL).	Đường có thể có mật độ giao thông vừa đến lớn, cũng dùng để đi lại giữa các khu vực. Cũng bao gồm tỉnh lộ. Đường này thường dùng để giảm số lượng xe lưu thông qua các tuyến trọng điểm, có thể giúp người tham gia giao thông đi đến khu vực cần đến nhanh hơn. Provincial highways (tỉnh lộ/TL).	Đường dân sinh, có mật độ giao thông nhỏ đến vừa, giúp đi lại giữa các khu dân cư và có thể nối một số đường giao thông lớn hơn. Low-traffic roads that connect residential areas or villages with the provincial and national networks.	Ngõ rộng có mật độ giao thông nhỏ hoặc các tuyến đường nhỏ trong khu dân cư không được đặt tên. Những đường này có chiều rộng chỉ đủ cho một ô tô lưu thông và những xe nhỏ hơn có thể vượt lên khỏi ô tô đó. Minor roads, usually narrow.
