However where footways/paths cross the kerb, you should also add a kerb=* tag to the intersection node, because it's asking a lot of data consumers to check every intersecting way for the kerb=* tag. > In that case, how should the type of kerb shown in this image be tagged? > > > https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-ZazzZqW8w5U/TkNH_duXp5I/AAAAAAAAAEs/kwDNJFxO9BE/s800/IMG_20110806_170811.jpg > >From the picture it appears to be kerb=rolled, that is "traversable by vehicles and bicycles, but not wheelchairs". > How should a stormwater drain be tagged? > > > https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-gD6RfYExBTc/TkNNqT-MNuI/AAAAAAAAAFI/gqh2ROwDkNQ/s800/IMG_20110811_132316.jpg > You could use kerb=normal (a value being discussed) to indicate it is not accessible to vehicles (car/bike/wheelchair). Since I can't find a tag for stormwater drains, perhaps just add a note (or propose a new tag :).
