From: Clifford Snow If we were to follow your logic, then every level crossing at the intersection of railways and highways should not be tagged as a level_crossing because of the rule "one feature, one OSM element."  Well, again, my personal preferences are not germane to this thread. I'm not shy

I agree that the wiki should be consistent on the use of these two ways of mapping a highway crossing. Personally, I always use highway=crossing on nodes and only footway=crossing when I can connect the point to a pedestrian feature for routing purposes. Às 12:44 de 10/06/2020, Jack Armstrong

Apologies if this has already been discussed. I searched the tagging list, but couldn’t find it.  Users have been adding pedestrian crossing tags on ways in addition to the street connecting nodes. In effect, a single pedestrian crossing is tagged twice. To me, this would seem contrary not only
