WSI Way Significance
Definition
A way that has been designed or constructed with the intention of providing traffic connections between (or to bypass) population centres of a national or international strategic importance. This includes sections of way that pass through the population centres urban area itself.
Description
The value is independent from the physical specification or type of way. While is some countries a way may be of high specification, in others it may be low specification. However the importance to the traffic network is the same. Similarly the specification of a way may change through its length but maintain its network importance. The importance of a population is determined by its administrative rank, population and/or urban footprint.
