It has different implications in some jurisdictions. E.g. in Germany or Italy you have to use a cycleway if it goes along a road, you can't use the road by bike any more, unless the cycleway is blocked, or for other reasons in unusable conditions or goes to where you don't want to go. cheers, Martin _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
