If you tagged the footway as a bridge, it's because it is suspended over the water (you said it's being held up by pylons). Is the motorway suspended too? Then you should tag it as a bridge. If it's not, then maybe the footway becomes a tunnel when it passes under the motorway. This shouldn't be a problem of layers - unless I have completely misunderstood the place you are describing. Do you have any pictures? Regards, Simone _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
