Code List: FormOfWayValue
Code | Description |
---|---|
Single Carriageway | A road consisting of one carriageway with traffic in one or both directions. There may be more than one lane in either direction. |
Dual Carriageway | A road consisting of two separate carriageways with separate flow directions. The carriageways are partitioned by physical features, such as a barrier and/or verge. |
Slip Road | A link that provides exit from or entry to another link. |
Roundabout | A method of controlling traffic flow by allowing vehicles from a particular direction priority. |
Collapsed Dual Carriageway | The geometry of the dual carriageway has collapsed; this occurs where they run parallel and are less than a defined distance apart, resulting in a single line representing both carriageways of a dual carriageway. |
Guided Busway | A specially-constructed or modified route for passenger road vehicles that have been built or adapted to be steered by external means. Typically, along guided busways there is a raised kerb with a track along which small wheels protruding from the sides of the modified vehicle run. This classification is only for specific cases where buses run along specifically-designed tracks or channels that remove the need for steering. |
Shared Use Carriageway | Roads that have been altered for use principally by pedestrians, but may also provide some access for certain types of vehicles. |
