That doesn't seem very helpful for cycling users of the map or its routers. If there is a blue round sign with a bicycle on it, I'd call that designated, or a blue rectangular one. Or the pavement is in a pinkish colour (here in Belgium). If I find a sandy track in the forest, where it's obvious

1) true, but wouldn't that by default be all steps unless otherwise noted? I guess in this case it's assumed that the steps inherit their implicit access from bridleway, so that might be different from the general case...? 2) a noble cause, but again I would think that excluding bicycle=no from

Horses are good at handling various obstacles. If you can find a local 'horse trial' go along and look. Yes it is a competition... But I don't map them as they are usually on private property. ___ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org

Hi, It is my understanding, from the Wiki at  https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Bicycle, that "bicycles=yes" means that bicycles are permitted, but says nothing about the ease of riding one there.  It is "bicycles=yes" and not "bicycles=designated" because, for a bridleway

Hi,   They are, indeed, quite "long".  I do not own a horse, nor have I seen one use this section of bridleway, however, I guess that, with each step having only a modest "rise" and a long "run", horses should have little difficulty walking up or down them, just as we do.  key:flat_step *might*

I was wondering about that myself. They seem to be 'long' steps. So a horse wouldn't have too much trouble with them. Also parallel with it on the other side of the small river there is a cycleway with no steps. That one is on Mapillary. Jo Op ma 29 apr 2024 om 00:15 schreef Graeme Fitzpatrick :

Generally speaking, how do we reconcile these two? bicycle=yes highway=steps What is a data consumer supposed to infer from this as opposed to just highway=steps? As long as foot=designated, aren't cyclists always allowed to get off the bike and push/carry it? And wouldn't they have to when
