In my area there seems to be a mix of how the US Forest Service route numbers are tagged on roads and trails. The main variations seem to be:
name=“Forest Route 9N24” name=“FR 9N24” alt_name=“Forest Route 9N24” alt_name=“FR 9N24” ref=“FR 9N24” ref=“9N24” Things I’ve seen in the wiki that might pertain cover “National Forest Trails” [1] which seems to want a tag of “route_no” or “trail_no”. That just seems wrong. And in the United States roads tagging [2] which seems to prefer tagging like: ref=“NFR 9N24” Which I don’t recall seeing in my area. What should the preferred tagging be? My inclination would be to migrate the tagging in my area toward that listed on the US road tagging page (e.g. ref=“NFR 9N24”) even though my preference (for printed map display purposes) would be to simply use ref=“9N24”. Opinions? Thanks!
