Thanks for the tip about the "change" tag.
So here is what I've done - does it sound right?
- in the section where the slip lane joins the 2-lane through road (where
lanes=3), I have added: "change:lanes=not_right|not_left| "
(this hopefully means that the left hand lane cannot change

Hi Cleary,
Two points:
Paint isn't a barrier. Vehicles can, and do, traverse over paint; it's
legal in many cases if there is a road blockage, for example. Being
unable to change lanes doesn't make a single road into two roads. If I
can't merge left then I'm not travelling on a different
Paint is physical. It can be seen. It is not just a psychological or imaginary

understanding, an unbroken painted line on the road is a physical barrier that
cannot be traversed.
