Special Use

Special Use roads are public roads administered by Local Governments, which have a separate use in addition to their typical Road Hierarchy function. Categories of Special Use roads include Aboriginal Access Roads, Industrial Roads and Laneways. Aboriginal Access Roads typically are the main access roads to Aboriginal communities; Industrial Roads are found in designated industrial areas, and Laneways are typically short narrow roads providing access to residential areas. Data DictionarySUSE - Special Use Table \n  Special\n  Use name\n  type\n  alias\n  sqlType\n  length\n  Description\n \n \n  ABORIGINAL\n  ACCESS \n   \n  Aboriginal Access\n  Road\n   \n   \n  A Local Government road that is the main access road to a remote\n  Aboriginal community.\n \n \n  INDUSTRIAL \n   \n  Industrial Road \n   \n   \n  A Local Government road that carries a greater proportion of heavy\n  vehicles, typically connecting to or located within a designated industrial\n  area\n \n \n  LANEWAY\n   \n  Laneway\n   \n   \n  A\n  Local Government road or carriageway that typically accesses the rear or side\n  of lots for residents or service vehicles.
