As a data consumer, +1 to the idea of highway=service,
service=escape_lane. This combo is enough information to avoid any
confusion about what the purpose of the way is, while also fitting
with existing common data/render schemes. To be absolutely safe with
regard to routing, an appropriate dissuas
I agree this should be highway=service, service=escape_lane.
Also note, if I'm thinking of the right thing, in the US this is usually
called a "runaway truck ramp". This phrase should appear in the feature
docuentation somewhere.

Eric,
The English version did say that at one point, as well, before it was
changed back to the current definition. Maybe the French one was copied
from it during that period.

sorry, I got you wrong here, thought you wanted to exclude them (foot-bridge).

if there are no legal restrictions one step or also 2 won't be an
unsurmountable obstacle for most vehicles.

you could use lanes=1 on the narrow parts.
Agree.
- a bridge or a raft with a bad link to the road/track i.e. a step at each
end of the bridge/raft. obstacle=unevenness ? or obstacle=step? For me
unevenness is to soft for what you describe.
split the way and put a short highway=steps, step
- a narrow bridge i.e. you can't cross a vehicle in opposite
direction. We may use width=* but it is difficult to get it
precisely. obstacle=narrowness
It's slightly offtopic, but wouldn't it be logical to use "car" as a non
accurate unit of length? So you can have a tag like "width=
Hi
In the UK local authorities are responsible for public rights of way. Paths,
bridleways etc. There are so called Best Value Performance Indicators (BVPI)
that require them to survey a certain % length of these each year to measure
the ease of use of the network.

Maybe, but I think we shouldn't tag strips of road which are not intended for
driving in any way but for stopping as highway=service.

I think we should work on making it easier to link to OSM from outside.
People can discuss which entities should and should not be a part of
the map as opposed to being part of an external database. The same
issue came up with regard to ferry schedules and whether they should
be included in the ma

you could use lanes=1 on the narrow parts. "narrowness" is a very
relative concept and I wouldn't encourage you to u

Hi,
During my last travel in Africa, I was thinking on how to map
obstacles on road. So I support your proposal but in a generalized
way, not only for pedestrian or bicycle. And I take the opportunity to
review what I observed:
