intermediate surface roads

A guess:

Based on comments in other answers and Jack's description I would do something like this:

fully paved roads (I guess I should post this on the other question.)

intermediate surface (gravel or graded gravel) roads

dirt roads

transitional type roads

I suppose they are somewhere in between the other types on classification scale.
I'm looking for those other types' analogues if someone will not find them earlier.

From what I know and according to web info there are basically two types of roads: the paved roads which are properly constructed with roadbeds and several underlayers and the earth roads.
The road pavement can be either highway-type (also known as capital roads) or \"light pavement\" with asphalt or certain mixtures.
Our transitional type means the road prepared for pavement, which may or may not be further paved (i.e. just covered with gravel).

Hope it helps

Jack, regarding your note: our collegue has given a link to Russian GOST site in his answer to your other question. They have all classification and specs there. I believe it\'s up to you to find or invent a proper equivalent: I could not find any.
