Comment[edit]

Should the Hutt Road in wellington be counted as an expressway? It's SH2 and is a high speed median divided multi lane road with traffic lights and some uncontrolled intersections. Right now 3 sets of traffic lights are currently being replaced with an interchange and/or bridges. Surely if something like the Bell Block bypass can be called an expressway the hutt road can be too.

I'll add it. And by the way, it's two roads, Western Hutt Road and Hutt Road. Laydan Mortensen (talk) 23:58, 12 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Shields[edit]

Shields should be used because they look better and communicate information better. Similar articles use them e.g. List of road routes in Queensland Life200BC (talk) 10:29, 2 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
