Speed Limits
Speed Limits in India are expressed in km/h. The government has formulated maximum speeds for road and vehicle types, but state and local authorities can adapt these to the local situation. As we cannot use WME Street View to verify Speed Limits, we will enter them according to the following guidelines:
- Do not to override existing SLs
- Check with local users and of course info from local URs
- if no local users active, try local or state authorities
- Info might be available from user-uploaded pictures on mapillary or GM, or youtube movies
The following states have speed limit regulations listed in this wiki, check there first:
If segments have no speed limits, and there is no local information available, you can add them according to following table:
| Road type | Max speed limit km/h | WME Road Type | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Rural area | Urban area | ||
| Expressway with access control
multilane, divider |
120 | -- | Freeway |
| Highways
4+ multilane, divided |
100 | 70 | Freeway Major Highway Minor Highway |
| Highways
all others |
70 | 40 | Major Highway Minor Highway Primary Street |
| Toll booth entrance roads | 40 | 40 | |
| Other roads
depending on the density of buildings and width of the roads (usual in old parts of the cities 20) |
60 | 40,20 | Primary Street Street |
These are general speed limits and the Speed Limit Signs will probably be in this range.
Notes
- The limits shown above apply only if there are no other signs present, as the signs may prescribe a lower or a higher speed limit. We are dependent on local editors to verify these speeds.
- Motorcycles are prone to stricter rules: 80 km/h for urban highways, and 60 km/h for all other roads. Unfortunately, we cannot yet add vehicle based SLs in WME (see next note).
- currently WME allows to specify only one speed limit for a single road segment. In case of variable speed limits, consult with the state manager or community management which method to apply (e.g., lowest/highest/no speed limit, or map only the speed limit which is in effect most of the time during daylight hours/most hours of the day/days of the week).
