Lock Levels
Indiana currently observes the following Great Lakes Region minimum lock levels for Waze road types:
Freeway - 5
Major Highway (MH) - 3
Minor Highway (mH) - 3
Primary Street (PS) - 2
The Ramp road type is to be locked at the level of road it serves.
- i.e. a ramp connected to a Freeway is locked at 5, a ramp serving a Major Highway, or Minor Highway intersection is locked at 3, etc.
Street All others - 1
Note: These are minimums and, for protection, certain segments may be at higher lock levels.
Or use this instead:
In Indiana we have a set minimum standard for locking roads based on segment type. Any road of a certain segment type must be locked at least to the rank (level) in the chart below. Roads may be locked higher for protection and special situations (areas with construction, tricky design, frequent mistakes, imaging inaccuracies, and the like), but should not be locked lower.
A great time to implement these locks is while bringing the road types of an area into compliance with the current US road type standards (FC and highway systems). Lock the roads based on type after they've been set to current US road type standards.
| Segment Type | Default locks |
|---|---|
| Freeway | 4 |
| Ramp | Highest rank of connected segment |
| Major Highway | 5 |
| Minor Highway | 3 |
| Primary Street | 2 |
