I think that tag is too ambigous and is meant to refer to a wider variety of hobbys (such as model airplanes/helicopters and drones). The term "aerodrome" is not used in the United States. This site does not have any infrastrucure to speak of when model rockets are not actively being launched.

Perhaps Hobby or Amatuer Rocketry Launchpad? That would be the best fit and I am sure that would be a helpful tag to create.

Thank you for correcting this. My mistake!

Hello Will,
I do think the amount of traffic for this segment of the CA-180 means that it should be marked as a trunk. I agree documenting this as an urban grey area would be a good idea. Can you do that?
Sincerely,

Ok, thank you!

Hello OddlyAngled,
This is a really minor point. However, shouldn't the nortwestern segment of Chiquito Ridge curl upwards to meet Little Shuteye Peak rather than downhill? You may want to refer to the USGS Topographic maps and the USGS 3D elevation datum which are most accurate for this area. Thank you for your time.
Sincerely,

Hello Will,
So, with regards to my local knowledge, this stretch of the CA 180 funnels significant amount of traffic from Fresno towards Sequioa and Kings Canyon National Parks. CA-180's expressway has only recently been extended to bypass the village of Centerville and the hamlet of Minkler in order to prevent traffic from backing up in those localities. The J31 road (South Reed Avenue) does drain a significant amount traffic southward to the City of Reedley. I would prefer that CA-180 be marked as trunk all the way to this junction and at minimum the road should be marked as highway=primary and Expressway=yes not farther west than North Academy Avenue (the major north-south throughfare that runs between CA-168, CA-180, and Sanger. Let me know what you think!
Sincerely,
Fresnomap

Hello willkmis,
This is my mistake! I based the Highway=Trunk marking off of the nearby CA 41 which is marked as Highway=Trunk between East Central Avenue and CA 46 even though it does not directly connect Fresno with another significant population center. Having reread the California/2022 Highway Classification Guidelines I now notice that CA 180 is curently NOT proposed to be trunk (I did not see this at the time of the edit). I think at least a portion of this road SHOULD be marked as trunk (Even though it does not directly connect major population centers like the CA 41), it serves as a Other Principal Arterial that connects CA 180 with Fresno in an important spur. As such CA 180 between South De Wolf Avenue and the intersection with North Academy Avenue or that of J31 (South Reed Avenue) should be marked as Trunk.

My apologies, I have not!

Sorry for my mistake. Thanks for letting me know! I will correct that.

Thank you! Do you know where unopened segment of southbound North Veterans Boulevard went? It is currently under construction (no public access) and parallels northbound North Veterans Boulevard (splitting from westbound West Herndon Avenue and continuing past the intersection with eastbound West Herndon Avenue).

Thank you, that makes sense! I think you could change this road segment to highway=secondary if you wish.

Hello oc_123,
Could you please tell me what source you used? I am not sure that the westbound lanes of West Herndon Avenue travel in the alignment pattern of your edit.

I agree that this segment of CA-168 should be classified as primary for being a road of regional importance as well as providing connectivity to minor population centers. (osm.wiki/United_States/2021_Highway_Classification_Guidance#Primary)

Hello olivercat,
While I agree with you that this segment of CA 168 (as well as all other segments of Highway 168 between here and Kaiser Pass Road) should be marked as Highway=primary (because of its regional importance in servicing minor population centers see: osm.wiki/United_States/2021_Highway_Classification_Guidance#Primary), there has been much discussion over this question. Please make a FIXME tag on this topic to bring this question to other mappers if you agree.

Hello archpdx,
Thank you for reviewing my erronous highway tags. I understand now that highway tags should not include "islands". In your opinon, should the segement of Millerton Road between the town of Friant and Winchell Cove Road be marked as Highway=Primary since it is a road which provides connectivity to minor population centers? The lowest maxspeed on this route is a speed limit of 40 mph.

See also @willkmis/diary/399345 "If two ways, often gets enough traffic to warrant a centerline dividing traffic directions, resulting in one marked lane per direction."

138357067 over 2 years ago

According to California guidlines (osm.wiki/California/Map_features#Highway_classifications) this portion of Stump Springs road, having two lanes and a speed limit greater that 35 mph, should be a secondary highway. It is marked as a tertiary now until review.

Hello,
I apologize for my mistake, thank you for fixing this!

This section of CA 168 is known locally as "The Four Lane" and has been called that by the county sheriffs department, how would I edit the name to reflect this fact? Could quotation marks be included?

Thank you for fixing my faulty edit regarding the culverts! There are many bridges over year-round creeks but the vast majority of these are indeed culverts.
