Business route interactive map line color
Primarily pinging @
Fredddie since the tutorial was just updated by him. The recommended standard for business route line color on interactive maps is green (same as toll roads). In the past, however, when I've used on hardcoded maps red for the subject route and green for a nearby toll road, it was confusing for
red-green color blind users since the subject and toll routes would look the same. The only featured article that has more than one color on the map is
M-553 with blue as the second route's color on the map. I would recommend that we state blue should be the first secondary color for any special routes / former routes. After that, maybe the colors for subsequent colors be purple, darker pink, and darker grey to provide contrast against the lighter colored map. —Mr. Matté (Talk/Contrib) 12:32, 18 September 2022 (UTC)reply
Good call. I was going off of the old static map standards. M-554's map (it was separate from M-553) uses #0000ff.
