That is a perfect example of something that isn't a turning circle. The tree in a bed prevents you using the full width of the circle to turn in. Were you to map that as highway=turning_circle width=10m (say), a 7.5m truck, which would be able to turn in a 10m unobstructed turning circle (eventually), would get stuck trying to make it around that loop. -- Jonathan (Jonobennett) _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
