And in case of long sections without

Even then, some roads may be named
but still do not qualify for residential
It depends on location, in Poland name
may be assigned to not yet existing
street.
As result, in initial stages something
used solely as a driveway to a single
house will be already named with
it's own street name.
Name may be still assigned to something
that is nowadays not a full road,
but for example footway in a park
or a service road.
