==== Important Note ====
These rows fill the major Event table, and are modified using the template {{tl|Event/Item}}. If you are working on a Major Event in {{RootPage2}}, please add add that event to this table. If the event is already listed, please add your username to the row, preceded by a pipe (|), and change the date to today's date in the <code>updated=</code> parameter.
Massachusetts [[{{BasePage2}}/Major roads | Functional Classification]] settings are dictated by the Massachusetts Department of Transportation (MassDOT), at the request of the local jurisdictions, and in coordination with neighboring states. If you do not agree with our FC levels, please petition MassDOT to change the rating they've assigned.


Do '''NOT''' make random changes on your own.


==== Locking Standard ====
This template accepts many parameters which must be separated from each other using pipe characters (|), but can be placed in any order and will automatically  the correct parts of the table. To use a parameter you must keep the name of parameter (the part before the equals sign (=) identical to this list, and only modify what goes after the equals sign (=).
{{Lock Standard State|MA}}


==Accepted parameters:==


==== Roadway Naming ====
*<code>name=</code> The name of the event.
*<code>area=</code> The county or are the event takes place in.
*<code>date=</code> The estimated date(s) this event happens on.
*<code>road=</code> The main road(s) affected by this event.
*<code>pl=</code> A [[permalink]] to the affected road(s), or a link to documenting listing all the affected roads (usually a Waze event closure document).
*<code>source=</code> A link to an official information source for this event, a government website, the hosting organizations webpage, etc.
*<code>status=</code> Whether this event has been submitted to Waze yet for this season. It accepts the following options spelled only exactly as listed here in order to correctly change the color of the row, filled with anything else will display with a white background
**<code>not submitted</code> produces a red background
**<code>submitted</code> produces a light green background
**<code>in progress</code> produces an orange background.
*Up to six editors can be listed in the table for any event. These can be the editors who are working to get it submitted, maintain the segments, or just have special knowledge of the event/area. They are entered as unnamed parameters. Meaning they are to be entered between two pipe (|) characters of the adjacent parameters. Each editors name (without any spaces) should be separated with a pipe (|).
*<code>updated=</code> the date this event was last updated in this table. This is used to keep the table current, and identify stale entries.


{{RootPage2}} follows the [[Road_names/USA#United_States_Interstate_Highway_System|US Road Naming conventions]] for Interstate, US and State routes, with the following considerations.


The naming format for Numbered State Highways in {{RootPage2}} is "'''SR-###'''".
The updated parameter (<code>|updated=YY/MM(/DD)|</code>) should be updated any time you update a row. Put the date you are modifying the row after the equals sign (=).  


State alternate routes have signage of  "###A".  Do NOT use the style employed for US alternate routes "US-### ALT" when naming '''state''' alternate routes.  Instead, use Waze names of the form SR-###A.  Example:  "SR-2A"


Cardinal Direction indicators will be used in accordance with National standards, except in the following situations:
The <code>|date=|</code>, and <code>|updated=|</code> parameters should use the format YY/MM/DD. The day of the month is optional. Using this format will make it easier to sort the list by updated date. This will help ensure the information on the list is current, and make it easy to find stale rows which may need to be adopted by other editors.


*Undivided US Highway/State Highway
*US Highway with a primary name other than "US-##"
*State Highway with a primary name other than "SR-##"


For example an Event row should look like this;


===== City Names on Freeway Segments =====
{{Tlx|Event/Item|name=''EVENT NAME''|date{{=}}14/10|in progress|username|updated{{=}}14/08}}


If a road segment is classified as a Freeway, there shall be No City Names listed, as well as no Alternate Names.


* For the "Mass Turnpike," we add the name "Mass Pike" to the on-ramp name.
If there are multiple editors it should look like this


{{Tlx|Event/Item|name=''EVENT NAME''|date{{=}}14/10|in progress|username1|username2|updated{{=}}14/08}}


===== City Names on MH/mH Numbered Highways =====


With the exception of Freeway segments (as mentioned above) all road segments should have a Primary city name assigned to them.


[[File:MA-SR-2.png|200px|thumb|right|Street Name as Primary Name]]The Primary Street name shall be whatever name is in common usage in that area. (Check business addresses, GIS, etc).  If the Primary Name is an actual Street Name (Main St, etc), please add the "SR-##" to the Alternate Name field, with no City name.
'''Whenever you edit this table, please be sure to include the name of the event you are editing in the summary field under the edit box.'''
————————————————————————————————————


[[File:MA-SR-1.png|200px|thumb|right|State Route as Primary Name]]'''However, if the commonly used name is "SR-##" then enter the street name, along with city, in the Alt Name.'''




If a segment has more than one State/US route number, follow the [[Road_names/USA#Concurrent_names|Concurrent Road Naming]] guidelines from the Wiki. Just remember, please no city names in the Alt Name field for numbered routes. (see examples on the right)
''The actual contents of this page '''will only be visible''' in the [[{{BasePage2 }}/Closures|Major Events table]], or when editing this page.''


If a Major/Minor classed segment is not a numbered highway, there should be no alternate names listed.

These are named highways in {{RootPage2}} which also carry numbered designations. Some are simply names of streets which carry a numbered route(s). Roads named after people/organizations were generally done so ceremoniously, after the numeric designation(s) already existed. Others carry more general names, such as the '''Southeast Expressway''' and '''Central Artery''' in Boston (which both refer to the same continuous span of I-93).
{{Event/Item|name=UN General Assembly|area=NYC|road=East Midtown|date=09 Last Two Weeks Annual|pl=https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Ira6IdyS3x3YtAlTqoXbU1Muw4ANl8rq7af2zKLcCtM/edit#gid=1895099030|Rfrsw101|jdelosa|johnsninja58|PesachZ|status=submitted|updated=2017/02/08}}


Several named highways cover the entire length of a given route in {{RootPage2}}; for example, all of Interstate 90 in Massachusetts is the '''Massachusetts Turnpike''', and the entire length of Route 213 is the '''Loop Connector'''.(*) denotes that the named highway spans the entire length of the numbered route in the state.

==== MassDOT Functional Classification Standard ====
MassDOT currently maintains two completely separate Functional Classification systems.  The state level system has been developed by the MassDOT Planning Division, and consists of 6 Road Types.
 
The '''Federal Functional Classification''' system is the Nationwide standard, and consists of 7 Road Types.  The major difference between the two is that the Federal FC classifies limited access arterials (non-Interstates) separate from full-access arterials.

== Speed Limits ==
{{Collapsible section top}}
[[File:Speed_Limit_70.png|150px|thumb|Right|Speed Limit Sign]] Speed limit data added to segments in the WME is used in the Waze app to display an app user's speed relative to the speed limit. In addition, the app notifies users if they exceed a speed limit designated on the Waze map.
 
The '''ONLY''' speed limits added to the map must match federal, state, and municipal laws or regulations that designate maximum speeds for passenger vehicles.
 
Any highway ramp with speed limits posted on the regulatory black and white signs should be added to the road segments in the WME. Ramps with '''advisory speed''' signs, as shown below, should have no speed limit in the WME.
 
Freeway segments that contain toll booths will not have speed limits designated as there may be different limits in individual lanes. Waze does not currently support the identification of transponder lanes and the like.  Also, the affected segments may be short in length so that the app might not be able to signal a drop in speed limit before users are at the toll booth.
 
Speed limits that are designated on private property may be added to road segments on the Waze map at the discretion of the regional coordinator or state manager(s).
 
{{mbox
| type      = notice
| text  = Speed Limits are added to parking lot and private road types by changing type to street, adding limits, then reverting to the original road type.
}}
 
 
=== State Specific Laws ===
 
Massachusetts has specific laws pertaining to speed limits for areas that are not posted. Please refer to the following table below for guidance for speed limits on road segments with no signage.  As of February 2016, there are currently no roads in Massachusetts that have a speed limit greater than 65 mph. If you have a question regarding the speed limit of an area please consult with your State Manager.

NOTE: As of August 9, 2016, a [https://malegislature.gov/Bills/189/House/H4565 bill was signed into law] allowing individual municipalities to lower the minimum speed limits in thickly settled or business districts to 25 MPH.  As of January 2017 the following municipalities have adopted this reduced speed limit: '''Arlington''', '''Boston''', '''Cambridge''', '''Somerville'''.

===Variable Speed Limits===
The WME and Waze app do not support Variable Speed Limits (VSLs) that are changed based on traffic and road conditions. These VSLs can be changed at any time by government officials. If there is a 'standard' speed limit at which the signs on a stretch of road are usually set, this 'standard' speed '''COULD BE''' added to the associated road segments in the WME. However, the setting of any speed limit on a road with VSLs must be done in consultation with the appropriate State Manager.
[[File:Var Speed Sign.jpg|framed|center|Variable Speed Limits]]
 
===Unsupported Speed Limits===
The following speed limits are unsupported by the WME and the Waze app, and '''MUST NOT''' be added to road segments in the WME. Road segments with posted 'advisory' speeds or special speed limits should continue the Speed Limit for passenger vehicles as posted on the '''black and white''' signs pictured above.
 
====Advisory Speed Limits====
In addition, yellow 'advisory' speed signs (as shown below) are usually not enforceable; therefore, 'advisory' speeds, like the ones shown below, should '''NOT''' be added to the waze map.

====Special Speed Limits====
{{As of|2016|02}}, the WME and Waze App only support maximum speed limits for passenger vehicles, without variation for time of day, or day of the week. Specialty, also known as 'bannered', speed limits, like the ones shown below, should '''NOT''' be added to the Waze map.

These rows fill the major Event table, and are modified using the template {{Event/Item}}. If you are working on a Major Event in PesachZ, please add add that event to this table. If the event is already listed, please add your username to the row, preceded by a pipe (|), and change the date to today's date in the updated= parameter.


This template accepts many parameters which must be separated from each other using pipe characters (|), but can be placed in any order and will automatically the correct parts of the table. To use a parameter you must keep the name of parameter (the part before the equals sign (=) identical to this list, and only modify what goes after the equals sign (=).

Accepted parameters:

  • name= The name of the event.
  • area= The county or are the event takes place in.
  • date= The estimated date(s) this event happens on.
  • road= The main road(s) affected by this event.
  • pl= A permalink to the affected road(s), or a link to documenting listing all the affected roads (usually a Waze event closure document).
  • source= A link to an official information source for this event, a government website, the hosting organizations webpage, etc.
  • status= Whether this event has been submitted to Waze yet for this season. It accepts the following options spelled only exactly as listed here in order to correctly change the color of the row, filled with anything else will display with a white background
    • not submitted produces a red background
    • submitted produces a light green background
    • in progress produces an orange background.
  • Up to six editors can be listed in the table for any event. These can be the editors who are working to get it submitted, maintain the segments, or just have special knowledge of the event/area. They are entered as unnamed parameters. Meaning they are to be entered between two pipe (|) characters of the adjacent parameters. Each editors name (without any spaces) should be separated with a pipe (|).
  • updated= the date this event was last updated in this table. This is used to keep the table current, and identify stale entries.


The updated parameter (|updated=YY/MM(/DD)|) should be updated any time you update a row. Put the date you are modifying the row after the equals sign (=).


The |date=|, and |updated=| parameters should use the format YY/MM/DD. The day of the month is optional. Using this format will make it easier to sort the list by updated date. This will help ensure the information on the list is current, and make it easy to find stale rows which may need to be adopted by other editors.


For example an Event row should look like this;

{{Event/Item|date=14/10|in progress|username|updated=14/08}}


If there are multiple editors it should look like this

{{Event/Item|date=14/10|in progress|username1|username2|updated=14/08}}
