Hi people,
I made a proposal to reform the tagging of those traffic signals, which do only control a crossing. The proposal has two main messages: First that crossing=traffic_signals is every time a strict under-tag of highway=crossing and should not be used on the same node with highway=traffic_signals, because it makes the scheme of how we tag crossings (on nodes) inconsistent. The second is that it wants to add the value traffic_signals=crossing_on_demand as an under-tag of highway=traffic_signals, to mark for the lane-traffic that there is a traffic-signals-node whch does only control an "on demand" crossing. These sets of lane traffic signals often miss a green light because most of the time there is "default green". Also it would fit into the traffic_signals=* tagging scheme for specifying the "type" of a traffic signal.
The link to the proposal is here: https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/traffic_signals%3Dcrossing_on_demand
I'm looking forward to your comments. Please (also) comment on the proposal's discussion page.
Yours, Lukas
