OSM highway color options?

[kucai]

Quick question. How do I view openstreetmap.org with JOSM highways’ coloring? i.e tertiary is yellow, motorway is blue etc…

https://map.atownsend.org.uk/maps/map/map.html uses those colours for the UK and Ireland (and of course if you want to create a map locally using that style, you can). There may be other maps around that use those colours too.

thanks. Was hoping that openstreetmap.org has some kind of options for that in order to quickly scan n find wonky highway classifications in the city. Again, thanks.

The Humanitarian rendering on openstreetmap.org gets close to that of JOSM, I think.
You might use that.

Somebody probably has done that already with Overpass Turbo and MapCSS styling to color highways.

Have you tried using JOSM filters to show only the highways you want?

I actually look at the big map at openstreetmap.org, pan left and right and all that to see the highway classifications. Then edit in josm as needed. It’s okay now, I’ll make do with what is available.

Did you try the style https://josm.openstreetmap.de/wiki/Styles/NewHighwayColors ?

I have used these two QA tools for improving highways mapping, Checkautopista and OSM Lane Visualizer.
