Was mapping a few hiking trails with foot-only bridges on the trail and
could not figure out a way to mark these bridge since the only bridge
waypoint needs the same parameters as a highway.
Any pointers on how to do this best?

Sure. Any bridgey thing can be tagged
Dont think my question was specific enough. I am using JOSM for this and
using highway tag means giving speed limits.
I am using the path=hiking trail for the trail and would ideally need a
bridge attribute 'yes' within the hiking trail.

JOSM does not give me that option of a bridge under hiking trail, atleast
not while using the presets. If I use the highway tag with a bridge,
consider this. I have a hiking trail marked as an 'demanding alpine hiking'
50 km from any humanity and then I have a bridge tagged as highway in the

You don't have to - it is optional.

Add the bridge=yes tag - it works just fine for that.

Forget the presets, you can tag how ever you want in OSM. Split your trail from
both ends of the bridge, select that part and add tag bridge=yes with

You don't have to fill in *anything* in a preset. If you don't, then
all of the optional stuff is left out and you only get the
bridge=yes tag, which is useful if you've forgotten.
Otherwise, you can just add it as an attribute. The typing completion
makes it very easy. Click on Add, type b

I didn't think the layer=1 was necessary when there's only one bridge -
it defaults to display above other objects.
I only use in there a multiple bridges crossing each other.

I don't trust any more on defaults:
I think I may understand your confusion here. You may think of highway to
mean a high-speed paved road on which motor vehicles travel. But within the
context of OSM, the highway tag is much more general purpose. Virtually
all formal and informal roads and paths should be tagged highway,

I assume layer is 0 if I don't add the layer tag.
Yes, which is usually anything at ground level.
Hopefully this is the correct thing to assume because otherwise things
will break if I have a bridge with no layer tag and a another bridge
No
