Such a road will also be a member of two associatedStreet relations. I've been mapping one like it in Schriek. Near the Schrieksesteenweg.
It starts as Langstraat, then is Langestraat on one side and Langstraat on the other. Then it's Langestraat on one side and Schrieksesteenweg on the other. To make things worse there are also side streets and even 2 houses at the end of one dead end street that belong to the other... http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=51.02218&lon=4.73284&zoom=15&layers=M During my latest editing session, I put the addr:housenumber tags on a node on the outlines of the buildings, as they do in France and in Germany, . Is that a good way to do it? This node also has a tag entrance=main and it is part of the associatedStreet relations. The building outline closed ways have source=bing2011(;survey) and building=house, if they are houses Jo 2011/11/8 Gerard Vanderveken <g...@ghia.eu>: > I agree with not splitting the road. > > For the is_in problem, I suggest the same use of left and right. > is_in:left = LeftTown > is_in:right = RightTown > > I have in my neighbourhood a road on the language border. > It has depending the side a different french (town of Wallonia) and dutch > name (town of Flanders) and on top of that a speed limit of 30 in one sense, > while on the other side, there is no limit or 70 km/h > > Regards, > Gerard. > > Ben Laenen wrote: > > On Tuesday 08 November 2011 14:46:00 Sander Deryckere wrote: > > > I'm not in favour of this.
