Thanks All

Have gone with barrier:fence fence_type:audio.

As an aside. When I was around Isisford Qld a few years ago there was a fairly big financial commitment going on replacing simple stock fences with dog ones. About 1.5-2m high of mesh construction that was also buried. As I recall it was horribly expensive, but one station owner had recouped his expense (sheep not attacked) after about 18 months. The audible/screamers sections on roads were very low cost in comparison.

Opinions/ideas please

On a substantial number of roads I have encountered "fences" with motion detecting squealers that deter stock not unlike a cattle grid. In fact cattle grids on major roads are sometimes replaced by them.

I have only ever seen one with a warning sign despite the noise sometimes sounding like a wheel bearing screech...

They are also often integrated into wild dog barrier (higher) fences and are reputed to have prevented a lot of sheep deaths.

What to map them as, if at all?

barrier:fence plus?

I saw a proposal in the wiki to use a sensory:audible tag for playground equipment but that doesn't seem valid.

Tnx
