Colin and Christoph, could you give some guidance about a couple of the specific situations that I brought up in the original post? First, in the question on the help Q&A board, the other mapper wanted to remove the coastline from tidal parts of rivers in England , so that the end of the waterway=

@Warin, Thanks for clearing up my confusion about passing places. These turnouts are definitely not the same. A vehicle should never stop in one. They are about 1/4 mile long and some but not all have painted lines to separate the highway proper from the turnout lanes. In the U.S., where we drive o

I would use both lanes=x+1 (where x is the number of lanes without turnout section) and something like turnout:lanes=no|no|yes|yes (if there are 2 turn out lanes) and lanes:turnout=1 (or 2, or 3) this is similar to tagging deficated bus lanes On Tue, Sep 4, 2018 at 9:37 AM SelfishSeahorse wrote

Hi! I'd propose to tag the section of the road with the turnout (or alternatively just a node) turnout:=yes. I would neither use a lane key nor a separate highway=service way, because slow vehicle turnouts aren't lanes for moving traffic and because a separate highway way would give the wrong imp
