Hi WillRock41,
It seems like there is a discrepancy about the inter-city highway classification on the Israel OSM wiki http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/WikiProject_Israel#Inter-city_Roads_-_Guidelines
On one hand it says "First rule for numbered roads: The category is determined by the color of the sign, not by the number of digits! " and on the other had it says that "All motorways have the following sign when entering [sign #216]".
Road 5 is an example where it is marked in blue yet the entrances may not have sign 216.
In my opinion only the color should determine the highway classification.
What do you think?

Hello WillRock41,
There was no response from you and you have been editing since my previous comment.
Unless there is a response in another week, I will assume you do not object to me reverting the highway classification of Hwy 5 and similar blue-signed highways to a "motorway" and the correction of the wiki page accordingly.
Best regards,
Zeev -

I think that the road standards should determine the highway classification
some parts of highway 5 have sidewalks and some have narrow shoulders

Highway classification is about road importance - http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:highway
.
Looking at the final proposal
http://forum.openstreetmap.org/viewtopic.php?id=17256
in the discussion that led to the decision on the highway tagging, I see that It's the road sign color that was adopted as the criteria for the OSM classification.
It clearly states: "First rule for numbered roads: It doesn't count the amount of digits but the color of the sign!"
.
The presence of sign #216 or the specific speed limit signs is not a criteria in the approved proposal.
