I agree that it might be desirable in some contexts (mainly statistics) to be able to identify these ramps distinctly, but for most contexts including routing it is the same as a footway. If you use a dedicated, low-use highway-tag you will risk to not get this feature evaluated at all (what is not desired here, IMHO). I suggest to use a subtag/attribute instead. cheers, Martin _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
