>From what I have seen, I think the mapping styles in OSM vary even by
state, e.g. in Sydney most things are mapped correctly however in other
places they are more commonly mapped before physical division starts; I'm
almost certain that this would be because of the different contributors in

Mapbox has a helpful page on the present day preference of squared intersection
mapping instead of the older X mapped method.
I guess this has evolved over time due to clearer and higher resolution imagery.
This might be tangential to the discussion, on the other hand, it might be a
kind of "hidden" or unstated assumption about how ways are "interpreted" in OSM
to mean some implied given semantic, which in my opinion, they shouldn't do.
So it could be revealing. Here goes: any given way should
l separate that does not exist on the ground.

Hello,
I'd like some assistance resolving a disagreement I'm involved with regarding
the correct mapping of dual carriageways
I am not familiar with particular intersections and my mapping of urban
intersections is limited. However I just looked at satellite imagery for three
of the identified intersections and the current mapping seems to be an accurate
reflection of what is on the ground. While guidelines can be

at least in a motorway context, it is to be mapped as one way until there
is a physical separation, which at that point it separates into separate
ways. Although it specifically describes motorways, I don't
