Hello Seán,
Thanks for that, sounds a great idea! Would be a great addition to any UK
countryside map once you have opened your API.

Would changing this to Tag:highway=bridleway be a starting point?

Yes, however the reasoning for this is that sometimes someone has drawn every
single driveway on a street in a city/town.
Rendering this at low zoom levels would clutter the map. By contrast, tracks
are often much more sparsely populated, so they don't clutter the map.
I don't know what the

I think the OP was saying there is a separate bridleway, almost parallel
to the feature in question.

A common situation is that a service road/driveway continues as a track
beyond the initial residential destination. This is common on farms.
On the standard map at zoom level 15, driveways are not shown. But
tracks and footpaths are. This seems counter-intuitive in that driveways
are usually

Hi Martin
I had to check the Council GIS - so the designation is Bridleway.
Because of the complexity, if this was tagged something like
'Bridleway=Yes' and get that displayed on maps of footpaths, surely that
would solve the problem?

Hi everyone,
I'm currently looking at a dataset with a view to it being published, that
defines a set of routes (various streets and paths), not physically marked
on the ground, i.e. they are subjective rather than objective. The aim is
to publish this as a dataset that then other people

Your first problem would be establishing a funding model for it; OSM, in
general, is not funded to a level that would support large scale end
user use.

Hi Andy
Yes I understand the tag that has been used (i.e. designation) although
I was suggesting the tag "Bridleway", the question that Martin posed was
that "at zoom level 15, driveways are not shown", so the work around in
this case might be to make a way with feature type = Bridleway?

Small-scale end use would be a start. But folks need to find it in the
