Maybe maxspeed:variable=yes. I'm using these tags: maxspeed=variable and to specify somewhat to give you a range on what to expect: maxspeed:variable:max=50 maxspeed:variable:min=30 It's mostly being used here for zone 30's near schools where the signs are turned on when children are going to or coming from school, and also for highways with digital speed signals.

That sounds good; wonder what the Germans are doing on this given they've had variable speed limits for over 40 years now. signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part ___ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
