Possible Route Errors

Is there an official source for the data? I can't find it in the external refs. There may be errors in some of the routes. There is conflicting information available, but it is difficult to be sure which documents are correct. For example, refs given below indicate that:

N10 may continue to the coast southwards from Kumasi.
The road from Tamale to Yendi may be R201, not N9.
N9 may be from Tamale to Pusugu, near Bimbilla.

See Annex VI, pp.37,38 on the pdf: ^[1], linked from ^[2] and also Road Link Map (Ghana Map of Bridges), available from my website at: ^[3] Hope this can be resolved as it would be good to know for sure which is correct. EJT (talk) 21:04, 2 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Ghana Road Network → Roads in Ghana – I can find no evidence that "Ghana Road Network" is a set phrase used in sources independent of Wikipedia, even searching Goolge for "Ghana Road Network" -Wikipedia almost all the results are actually for "Ghana's road network" and searching for "Ghana Road Network" -Wikipedia -"Ghana's" brings up nothing relevant. That would argue for the title of the article being Ghana road network, but if this isn't a proper noun then the article should use the "Roads in <country>" naming scheme which seems to be the standard.

@Aniketkhan14 Why? Thryduulf (talk) 16:23, 18 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

It's more convincing rather than the roads in Ghana. It's aboutnetwork not aboutthe condition of the roads in ghana Aniketkhan14 (talk) 16:26, 18 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Support, per nom, it is minimally not a proper name so per WP:NCCAPS should be de-capitalised. Don't mind the title itself, while "Roads in" is more common (so WP:CONSISTENT), "Ghana road network" can work too. Dank Jae 16:48, 18 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
