Thanks for the clarification, Adam. I see a number of things in play here, These lanes are of local interest for only a limited time. They may not get rendering support unless/even if you submit patches to the renderers. If you want to render this yourself, perhaps an openlayers "mashup" will be more to your liking? One lane out of a way, for special use suggests something like cycleway=lane. Perhaps olympic=lane ? This is an item that will exist for a limited time period, so date_on= and date_off tags for this restriction seem reasonable. Overall this smells like a relation to me. There are no physical changes to the roads (?) Perhaps only temporary signs. Relations for this allow you to add the restrictions and label in a single place, then remove it afterwards. http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Relation:route Perhaps like this type=route route=olympic name=Olympic Route access=official date_on= date_off= members would be the way sections that are part of the route. _______________________________________________ Talk-ca mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-ca
