Re: [Tagging] Link roads between different highways type

Hello ! I think there should be both pieces of information ! A tag to indicate the main road typology and a tag to indicate the link road typology (basically the lower class of the interchange but it can be something else in case of spaghetti junctions). And let renderers decide which feature

In reality this varies from case to case and from country to country. The important part is that the access rules are correct, and explicitly tagged, where needed. The general rule, i.e. to use the higher-level tagging takes largely care of this, as normally the higher-level road class has more

I agree with you. For roundabouts and circular junctions, I use the highest type. For link roads, the lowest. I could see an exception for motorway onramps, indicating "starting here you can't get off the motorway". On Tue, Jan 15, 2019, 11:52 Saeed Hubaishan About the subject I used to
