WA 500 really should be a trunk due to ending at a 4-way intersection and having two intermediate at-grade intersections.

Farmington Road will be widened to five lanes between Murray Blvd and Hocken Ave. Sidewalks and bike lanes will be added throughout. More details at http://www.co.washington.or.us/LUT/TransportationProjects/farmington-murray-to-hocken-project.cfm?expand

Highway markings define the junction point to occur at this sign. Starting from this sign, lanes are treated as separate exit offramps through the tunnel and until their departure from the freeway.

Previously this was modeled as a single 3-lane highway over this distance with no lane changes allowed, but this caused some navigation software to interpret the actual junction point as being further along the highway, after the tunnel. Splitting the highway to three roadways at the marked junction point appears to be the strategy visible in other mapping platforms (see: public Google Maps data for this region), and I've updated the road data here accordingly.

I'm bringing this up again because the last time I brought it up the issue was not resolved to my satisfaction. Basically the answer was a snarky "stuff happens" which is not constructive or helpful.

Someone in this area is going too far with adding features. Fences, bamboo hedges, a redwood tree, and sidewalks are way too detailed. While maps are getting more detailed as time passes, there is no OSM convention that says we should be adding all of these things and without proper tags, sidewalks can't be separated out from a hiking trail or any other generic path. The presence of a sidewalk ought to be a tag on the street, although there is not a convention for this either and it does not account for incomplete walkways.

While I applaud the effort, I believe it's premature and perhaps this person should probably be using a personal map instead of OSM for this mapping project.
