Any decent router will totally ignore a noexit=yes tag as it determines the topology from the actual ways and how they are connected.
The noexit=yes tag serves only one purpose and has two different "data consumers": the next human mapper that comes along and automated QA tools. It allows those two data consumers to know that a way that ends close to another way but is not connected to it is not a mistake. For that purpose it should be on the node at the end of a way that is very close to but not touching another way. I agree with Martin that if you wish to tag a street sign that says "no outlet" or "dead end", then put a node where the sign is and tag it with "traffic_sign=*". -Tod On May 31, 2014, at 3:46 AM, Volker Schmidt wrote: > This is not so obvious, because it has to be directional (for the router). > If you start your route in such a dead-end street you never get out, if it's > not directional. > The noexit=yes on the way to me seems much simpler and intuitive. > (I used the tag initially in this way, when I started with OSM.
