 Posted: Tue Jul 13, 2004 1:42 am Post subject: Road speeds for France/Spain |
 |
|
Hi,
I am going to use my TTN3 to travel through France to Spain very shortly.
I have no idea what road speeds to set in Navigator Properties for each of the road classifications, for these countries, and would appreciate any pointers that may help.
I am having enough trouble trying to get the English ones right  . The TTN3 seems to plan some weird routes compared to those it planned as TTN2.
Additionally, can anyone advise me about the Move E-roads to the back option.
Should I tick it or not

Hi Lost1,
A while back, several people (myself included) posted the speed limits of different roads of different countries in the GPS Assist Beta forum. I have found this post again and here are the speed limits it gives for France and Spain:
France: 50, 80, 90, 100, 110, 130 (kph)
Spain: 50, 70, 90, 100, 120 (kph)
The above figures are taken from the UK Automobile Association web site.
HTH. 
Bo Peep.

Regarding the E roads, I have driven through France a couple of times and usually the motorways show both routes, so I haven't bothered ticking it. Anyway, if you follow TT3, it doesn't really matter because TT will be telling you which way to go!!

In France, a lot of roads have both an E number and also an A number - you can choose which to display. For example, the Calais - Dunkerque motorway is both the E40 and the A16.
