Guide for use:

Within a road name it is possible to find what appears to be a Road type. It is also possible to have a null Road type.

For postal purposes the Road type should be abbreviated.

Usage Example:
MAIN ROAD

In this case the street name is MAIN and the Road type is RD.

This data element is one of a number of items that can be used to create a primary address, as recommended by the AS 4590-2006 Interchange of client information standard. Components of the primary address are:
