Road Types
| Waze Road Type | Naming | Irish Road Type |
|---|---|---|
| Freeway | Mxx | Motorway |
| Major Highway | Nxx | National Primary & National Secondary |
| Minor Highway | Rxxx | Regional Roads link roads into bypassed towns |
| Primary Street | "Main" streets in towns and cities and rural roads (other than R roads) that are important connectors with a high traffic volume. It should be possible for two cars to pass without having to slow down before a road is made a primary street, and the road should not be a cul-de-sac, otherwise the road should be marked as a normal street | |
