Are they for parking? One council in my area explicitly considers some on-street parking strips as de facto bike lanes. I like the idea of tagging them. It would also be worth making an attempt to fit the different kinds of infrastructure into some sort of ranking, so that different renderers/routers/whatever can treat them consistently. eg: --Best-- highway=cycleway cycleway=track cycleway=lane / cycleway=opposite_lane [shoulder proposal in here?] cycleway=unsigned_lane cycleway=shared_lane (or sharrow or whatever gets decided) none --worst-- Steve _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
