Re: [OSM-talk] Wide roads and traffic signals

Had a quick glance at your mapping work (impressive. Congrats!)
Geha Road seems to be missing it's oneway-tags as well as the 
primary_link connecting it with Weizmann Avenue. And there are some 
untagged ways which look like they've been converted from GPS. Are these 
yours?

 Hi everyone,
 
 I am trying to map my area (that is very sparsely mapped in OSM
 currently), so I bought a GPS device and started cycling / driving
 around and edit my tracks.
 The results so far can be seen at

If you can't cross from one side to another anywhere, then it should
be marked as two separate ways.

When you have a twoway road connect to one of these,  it will connect
to each side, with a little crossing piece in the middle. When you
have two such roads connect, then it will look like a hash symbol (#)
with four nodes.  Each of these nodes would have a traffic light tag
if there were lights.

 My questions:

 1. How do I map a wide road with a separation (line of trees) between
 the two directions?
 Something like:

 
 
 *  *  *  *  *  *  *  *
 
 

 Do I set it as a one two-way road or two one-way roads?

 2. If I set it as two separate ways, how do I mark traffic signals
 (traffic lights) where two such roads cross each other?

 Something like:

I think the OSM way is to map it as 2 separate one-way ways. The rule of 
thumb is if it's physically impossible to change sides (ie something in 
the way down the middle), then it should be 2 ways. If it's nothing more 
than a painted line down the middle, then map it as a single way.
