Hi Andrew,
thanks for all these hints. I probably should have read up on the tags a
bit better. A case of too late mapping.

I've followed your suggestions and added the tags up and downstream of
the roundabout with this changeset
https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/78947187

I do welcome comments. In particular regarding how to go about the cycle
way and the roundabout. And what about sidewalk? I'm inclined to map it
as a separate way.

Cheers,
Seb
