Functional Classifications

California is following the Functional Classification (FC) system for the USA.

To help update the current California roadways to the new functional classifications, go to the California FC update page.

Lock Levels

We observe the following minimum lock levels for Waze road types:

CALIFORNIA ROAD LOCK LEVEL STANDARDS
ROAD TYPE LOCK LEVEL
  Freeway  5
  Ramp  5
  Major Highway  3
  Minor Highway  2[1]
  Primary Street  2
All Others 1

Additional:

  1. Increase lock level to 3 in dense metropolitan areas


Note that these are minimums and, for protection, certain segments may be at higher lock levels.
