Confusion? Surely any road or street bearing one of those blue shields must be some sort of highway? If not, the page needs a clear link to the definition of "highway" that excludes the "major road" group. Robin Patterson ( talk) 13:04, 25 December 2008 (UTC)
I have removed Lake Road from this list, it is hardly a major road, and lost its few hundred metres of state route at least 5 years ago.
It got me wondering, what is the criteria is for inclusion on this list? Does it have to be managed by MRWA (it will have a H or M designation on RIMS)? If so, many of these roads listed would be out, including several state routes. Does it need to have a route number (excluding tourist drives) or be managed by MRWA? If so, several of these are out, such as Farrington Rd, Malaga Dr, Crimea St, Vahland Ave, Karel Ave, Bannister road (the Canning Vale one, not the MRWA managed one in the wheatbelt) and even Drumpellier Dr, actually (mostly) built by MRWA.
This list needs some properly defined criteria for inclusion, maybe something like traffic counts can factor in, and (controversially?) I suggest that state routes should not be automatically included.
My first suggestion for criteria is this:
An alternative method would again use RIMS data, but would use their named designations, such as "Secondary distributor" or "Local road" and would include anything in a certain category or higher. This is probably simpler, but does have some issues.
