I have been reading thru these posts and havn't seen a consensus/summary
yet. In my view it should be reasonably straight forward based on the tags
we have. The point is to describe what is actually there.
highway= is for the type of road regardless of condition. A paved surface
is assumed

Paul,
Thanks for the reminder about the US Tagging page, I forgot to add it to my
watchlist in the wiki and it's definitely grown since my last read-through.
Regarding the whole road vs. track vs. path debate, I think the only way of
resolving the whole track/tracktype (

Hi Paul and Greg and talk-us,
Your points regarding tagging of gravel roads, highway vs. path vs.
trail, and vehicle choice are points that come up in the OSM community

OK, but can you drive them in a PT Cruiser Touring Edition, a Porche
911, or some other
full support for all your arguments.
there are a few places where the wiki is different and I think we

Hello,
In my neighborhood there are some unpaved residential streets. How should
those be tagged?
highway=track
highway=residential
surface=unpaved
