I've always assumed that such fences and the "adults must be 
accompanied by a child sign", that often accompany them, is to keep 
out adults who are not related to the children, as a child protection 
measure.


humm ... the child is required to supervise the adult. I'd call that an 
adult protection measure.

Mapping individual equipment is a possibility, whilst as a 58 year old I am 
unlikely to use the swings but I do use the exercise equipment and climbing 
wall.


Hi Phil,

Here the exercise equipment is in a separate area away from the 
playground. According to the wiki it should be tagged 
leisure=fitness_station, which I've done, although the signs call it a 
"Green Gym".


As a 71-year-old my idea of exercise is to walk briskly by. :)

Martin.

The local fenced ones do have a maximum age on the sign. Can't remember what 
that is but I would only use it if there is a number. The unfenced area has no 
sign so I would not add a minimum age.

Hi Phil,

That's what I've done, but how do I add age tags if there are no signs?

I don't feel qualified to guess suitable ages in years. And max or min 
suggests actual restrictions apply.


But it would surely be helpful to map users to know the type of play 
equipment available? I'm tempted to try max_age=yes, min_age=no for the 
fenced area, and min_age=yes for the remainder.


The main reason for the fence would seem to be the several NO DOGS 
signs, which I have tagged.


cheers,

Martin.

IMHO if there are no actual restrictions, just implications, then
don't specify any min_age or max_age. Just map the fence as a fence.
If there are indeed restrictions, then do as Phil suggests...

Cheers

tags as appropriate to that area.

My towns main  rec has such a distinction, outside the fenced children's  area 
anyone can use the equipment.

[Talk-GB] Playground age limits

2019-06-04 Thread Martin Wynne

In the local park there are two areas of play equipment for children.

One is fenced off and clearly intended for infants/toddlers accompanied 
by parents.


Next to it there is a larger unfenced area containing play equipment for 
unsupervised older children, large climbing structures, zip wires, etc.


leisure=playground allows min_age and max_age in years, but in this case 
there are no signs giving specific age restrictions.


How best to map the distinction between the two areas?

Martin.
