And here's a road that wants to be a shared space but isn't there yet...

The goal of reducing the traffic speed has been achieved, apparently.

The classic shared space scheme in Haren:
http://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=19/53.17312/6.60310
has no tags that I can see.
I'd go for something like shared_space=yes for the moment. It's a "special"
type of traffic calming.

Just like in the UK, the councils here make it up as they go along; a
"shared space" has no special legal status, unlike a "woonerf".
A general principle which has proved its worth is that to make things
safer, you remove the safety features. Like white lines and kerbs.

Not an answer, but a suggestion where there might be a bit more info...

My original solution when I changed the living streets back to normal roads
a few months back was to just add extra tags to highlight the features of
the scheme: access, traffic calming, surface, maxspeed:practical etc. I
have just received a message from contributor 'lakedistrict' who raised the
One of the first edits I did in OSM was to change my local high street
to a tertiary road from a living_street. I think I noticed it because
it's rendered different by osm-carto and some routers wouldn't use the
road for directions.
It's a 20mph two lane road, except with three traffic

For "quiet lanes" (which are sort-of a rural analogue to urban "home
zones") I went with "designation", and it looks like I'm not the only one:
Hi Colin,
I agree entirely (though note that the two share many of those features so
I can see where the argument comes from).
If a shared space is not a living street how should it be tagged?

It depends if you want to have a uniform basis for "living_street"
across the world (well, Europe at least). The concept is well known and
understood in continental Europe, and basically implies driving at
walking pace, no separate pavements, no parking except in marked spaces,
and all road users

Hi,
Over the past couple of years Fishergate, the high street in Preston, and
some surrounding streets have been redeveloped and these highways are now
designated as 'shared space' https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shared_space
Following redeveleopment these were mapped as "highway=living_street".
