Is it maybe more universal to map strictly objective parameters instead? It seems for me that mapping length, armrest in the middle and width would be both far more objective and potentially useful also for other purposes 10 Sep 2020, 20:10 by r...@technomancy.org: > I asked about this ~1½

I expect the "width" of a way to be the actual width of the object it represents. This obviously changes depending on the mapping style applied, e.g. - if it's a highway with sidewalk and cycleway tags, it's the width of all of it - if it's just a road with footways mapped as separate ways

Absolutely high time! Thank you for bringing this up. I was under the impression that the wiki already defined it like 2). 1) is not practical because parking lanes can be informal or can change quickly, 3) is also not practical because sidewalks + additional greenery/space between road and
