addr:interpolation used on single buildings has certainly been our standard practice in the East Midlands for 9 or 10 years now. It's now often used in conjunction with addr:flats or addr:unit, but also with addr:housenumber, which I think was the first usage. It was obvious early on that multiple

That JOSM rendering is just a limitation in JOSM's rendering - I'd imagine it was unplanned. I'd be happy to see that second solution (i.e. make clear the interpretation of the tag, for closed ways). I don't necessarily think it needs a proposal/vote but I'd be happy to see it happen! Best Dan

Just to add by the way, in a country like netherlands "cycleways" are paved paths dedicated to cycles. You can't walk on there because there are also sidewalks to walk on. E.g.: https://i.ytimg.com/vi/pAL4yr927e4/maxresdefault.jpg -- 10 Dec 2020, 14:08 by tonyo...@gmail.com: > > Are there

I use addr:interpolation on single items as in Mat's example, just as much as on an explicit "interpolation way". It seems to me the concept is perfectly adaptable. For example, an address-search-engine should have no trouble digesting these two almost-the-same uses of addr:interpolation. Cheers

I believe you're incorrect. Cycleways can be shared use with pedestrians, & almost always are in the UK. Cycleway/footway/path tags are not based on usage figures. Cycleway allows for two modes of transport, footway allows one.  Likewise 'bridleway' allows for three modes -
