Initial effect of separate highway=busway would be that all data consumers that have not added support to this new tag would not display them. Due to nature of busways in most cases it would not be deeply harmful effect or very disruptive, but for some unknown time (possibly very long) highway=bu

I'm actually the author of the highway=busway proposal. I don't actually work with the database, so I don't know how disruptive creating a new highway=* tag would be. Having a separate highway=busway tag just seemed obvious to me. I would not hierarchically place busways under highway=service du

I agree that highway=bus_guideway deserved it's own tag, since it is halfway to a rubber-tyred light metro, and quite similar to the "people mover" systems often found at airports, which often use concrete guidways and rubber-tired vehicles. But since other busways serve the same public transit fu

Here's an example of an exclusive busway, which is only used by the Orange Line / G Line bus service in suburban Los Angeles: https://media.metro.net/riding/images/LinePage_orange_line_header.jpg The busway is a 2-lane paved surface which is exclusively for public transit buses. There is a parall

When you say busway is that just a road that only busses are allowed to use, and specifically signposted for busses? if so then the suggested you noted of highway=* + bus=designated + access=no would be correct. On Sun, 18 Oct 2020 at 17:12, Joseph Eisenberg wrote: > There is an approved tag for
