ITN weights and width attribution

This page provides information on weight and width attribution in OS MasterMap® Integrated Transport Network™ Layer (ITN).

Go to: Weights and width features captured | Weights and width attribution | Information for customers (TOID updates)

 

All physical weight and width restrictions related to bridges in Great Britain have been captured where signed. These restrictions complement the existing Road Routing Information (RRI) features and, in particular, height restrictions. These point features have been associated to the underlying RoadLink feature.

Data is supplied on written request to existing ITN Road Network with RRI customers as a separate CSV file.
Please note this is a frozen dataset which uses the December 2009 data.

Examples of captured real-world weight and width features

The following photographs show examples of the kinds of real-world restrictions that are captured by the weight and width features.

Figure 1: Example of a real-world weight restriction (weak bridge).

Figure 2: Example of a real-world width restriction (narrow bridge).

Figure 3: Example of a real-world width restriction (pinch points).

refRoadLink *

String

 

 

Reference to the RoadLink TOID that the restriction applies to.

roadName **

String

 

 

The road name (if it exists) that the restriction applies to.

coordX

Float

 

 

X coordinate based on British National Grid.

coordY

Float

 

 

Y coordinate based on British National Grid.

environmental

Logical

 

T or F

 

Logical field indicating whether the restriction is an environmental restriction or not.

enviroInfo

String

’Except for

loading‘, ‘Except for access’

 

Any qualifier information that appears on an environmental restriction sign.

refRoadNode

Logical

T or F

 

Indicator that the point references a RoadNode rather than a RoadLink.

Notes for the table

If the refRoadNode field is ‘True’, the refRoadLink field is a reference to the RoadNode TOID rather than the RoadLink TOID.

If the refRoadNode field is ‘True’, it is possible that the RoadLink features either side of the RoadNode could have different roadNames. If this is the case, the two roadNames will be separated by ‘/’ (that is STATION ROAD/HILLSIDE). If only one of the RoadLink features is named, the roadName will be followed by ‘/’ (that is HAY LANE/).

No name will appear in the roadName column for DfT numbered road.
