5.3.10.1
This is a Street that is not allocated an official Street Name by the SNN Authority, therefore the Street may not have a Street nameplate.
5.3.10.2
A type 2 Street must never overlap another Street.
5.3.10.3
These Streets are often in rural areas or are Access Roads or alleyways and only have a Street Description.
5.3.10.4
Type 2 Streets shall have a description and do not rely on road numbers alone.
5.3.10.5
Road numbers are not always identifiable in the real world. Therefore it is best practice to describe type 2 Streets using real world Objects.
5.3.10.6
However, sometimes it is necessary to include the road number at the start of the description as in the example at Section 5.3.10.8.
5.3.10.7
If a bridge is a Street is its own right it must be added to the NSG. A separate BLPU must be recorded in the LLPG for the structure of the bridge. This BLPU must be addressed to the Street which leads onto the bridge or the Street which represents the bridge, for example “Battersea Bridge, Battersea Bridge Road”.
5.3.10.8
Type 2 Street Descriptions should start with the kind of Street, for example:
- “B1234 from”.
- “Road from”.
- “Lane from”.
- “Track from”.
- “Path from”.
- “Footpath from”.
- “Access road from”.
- “Service road from”.
Except Motorway service slip roads which should be named in the following manner:
- Motorway number, service station name, direction of travel, on or off, slip road, for example:
- “M62 BIRCH SERVICES BETWEEN JUNCTION 19 AND JUNCTION 18 OFF SLIP.”
- “M62 BIRCH SERVICES BETWEEN JUNCTION 18 AND JUNCTION 19 ON SLIP.”
