That is good for rural areas but I was thinking of cities. There are all sorts of paths between buildings, pedestrian shortcuts, even walkways inside shopping centres and so on. I believe these should be tagged as highway=footway and should not have any designation=x or foot=designated or other cruft added, unless there is definite knowledge of the right of way status. -- Ed Avis <[email protected]> _______________________________________________ Talk-GB mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-gb
