Description

Description
It seems that presently only the US interstates have a network of anything besides "other." It would be great if the tile set produced could be compatible with @americana/maplibre-shield-generator. That project has a very extensive mapping of networks to road shields, and it would be great if we could somehow leverage it with these tiles/styles.

Research direction

Read the compatibility request alongside @americana/maplibre-shield-generator, which is identified as the reference for network-to-road-shield mappings. The issue does not name files, tests, or an entry point; done means the generated tiles and styles can leverage that mapping beyond the currently supported US interstates.
