you could, but I'd suggest to use distinct objects and add layer tags to one in

I think that one single object should suffice as long as the dam and the 
road don't have different names or something. We don't make separate objects 
for highway=* and embankment=* either. However, I am afraid that some 
renderers are too dumb to extract a highway and a dam out of one object. 
That makes your suggestion seem fine from a practical viewpoint.


There are bridges with a pipeline inside and a footway on top (or an 
underground railway inside and a road on top). In that case, we should 
definitely separate them in order to define layer=*. It is important to 
duplicate the nodes too because the pipeline is not connected to the footway 
(as opposed to the road which is connected to the dam). If we would care, 
even the nodes should get layer=* tags.

in a simplified mapping you could use both on the same object, but
generally I'd map a dam as an area and in this case you won't be able to
simply add a highway tag.

Hi,

Thanks to all who responded.

Yes, I finally did that. Even if the dam is a mere 6.5 m wide, it makes
sense.

It depends what tags you're speaking of.

Doing as said above, I got a Crossing waterway/highway (at dam ends)
compliment from JOSM.
Expecting Osmose soon.

Having had them share the same nodes, which I like less because
invisible, that would have been overlap compliment, even at different
layers unless this will be accepted one day.

See what I mean?

Cheers,

 Hi,

 The waterway=dam http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Dam
 definition is all well but it doesn't give a damn about what runs
 on top ;-)

 I feel like Osmose hides nearby ready to jump.

 The actual case I meet is one of a dam incorrectly tagged as a bridge.
 And I inherit a menagerie of highway related attributes.

 And, once again, I'm baffled by a dam being a waterway, like a
 crossing being a highway and an artificial water reservoir being a
 natural.

 Cheers,

 André.

You could map the dam as area with the highway crossing it.

I might just tag that with two ways, especially if the shape of the dam
eventually diverges from the highway running over it.
It just seems cleaner to have it just be a highway, no?

waterway=dam
level=0
name=Damn Dam

highway=primary
level=1
bridge=yes
name=Damn View Highway

I might share nodes between the two ways (if I'm feeling like a neatnick
with no regard for iD and Potlach users).
One day someone might decide to flesh out the dam way and turn it into an
area for an example look at Boulder Dam / Hoover Dam, which is a
waterway AND a building AND a dessert topping.  Good thing it's not a
highway also, as that would cross the line.
