Hi Sergey, in Germany a living_street is a designated type of street with a special sign [1]. So, I would only use living_street for this type of streets. I usually tag alleys either as service or if they are in a very bad condition as track.
Perhaps it would make sense to introduce highway=alley? cheers, Christoph [1] http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/7/7b/Zeichen_325.svg "USHAKOV, Sergey" <usha...@int.com.ru> schrieb: > Hi, > > the wiki page > http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:highway%3Dliving_street > suggests that 'living_street' objects should be attributed with a > 'name' tag.
