True. Center kerbs are often for short distances to prevent left turns. The
connecting streets could just be tagged with a no left turn.

There doesn't seem to be interest in creating a tag kerb=center so one of
the alternative will have to be the default. When I get some free time I'll
try to add something to the wiki to help other mappers with center kerbs
and barriers.

the issue, i think is that frequently there are highways that have raised
concrete barriers, but with frequent gaps. you end up needing to model
this one way or another. there is not really an easy way out.

but this would only work on a road with no crossings (or all crossing on

Going with the theme of lazy wins out, having to convert a way into a dual
carriageway is a pain. That is why using the tag kerb=center would 1) tell
routing engines that left turns are not permitted and 2) possibly render
more accurately. Dual carriageways renders [1] as if there is median when
in fact it is only a kerb. This process could be expanded to include Jersey
barriers.

An alternative could be barrier=center/left/right,
barrier=kerb/Jersey_barrier

Being lazy and not having anything that'll do AutoCAD-like fillets and
chamfers (seriously, how do we still not have shape tools beyond (and even
then, JOSM only) basic rectangles and diameter-defined circles anywhere?),
I'd be strongly inclined to just draw the kerb between the two lane=1
carriageways.

I'd map them as dual carriageway. If you want to go into details you could
use the area relation (type=area) and add barrier tags for the dividing
kerb (implicit) or draw the kerb and add it as barrier object (explicit).
This relation type is currently not evaluated AFAIK.

That'd count as a median in my book.  Separate ways for either side of it.

Re: [Tagging] Concrete kerbs in highway

2015-06-22 Thread johnw
Many tollways in rural Japan are 1/2 of the planned tollway road - they run the 
traffic on the completed side in both directions, one lane for each direction. 
The seperation is jsut a tiny little concrete kerb nailed into the road. almost 
any car could jump it really easily, as it is 20cm high. 

They are still considered separate roads. 

If they feel it is important enough to separate road traffic in a public road, 
then create two one-way roads. if there is special crossing for emergency 
vehicles (sloped kerb in a special spot), then you can put a service road 
connecting the two one way roads and mark it access=emergency. 

almost any truck or SUV can already drive over a kerb and some medians without 
damage if done with care, so it is the intent of the kerb that is mapped - 
splitting the road - IMHO.

[Tagging] Concrete kerbs in highway

2015-06-22 Thread Clifford Snow
I have a question about how to tag concrete kerbs that prevent vehicles
from crossing. Below are links to two different examples. Creating a dual
carriageway doesn't seem correct. Turn restrictions would help vehicles
routing, but that doesn't tell emergency vehicles that they can drive over
the kerb if necessary.  Would adding a tag, kerb=center, be the best method
of tagging these highways?

How do you tag these features?
