Hi John,

I don’t know if how I do it is “right”, but I have used access=destination, and 
foot=no where I have those types of things. I haven’t ever used 
amenity=parking_entrance, although that doesn’t mean I’m right as I’m still a  
relative newbie at this compared to many. Actually, I use access=destination on 
all of my school entrances, regardless, as they are rarely, if ever, public 
rights of way and can seem like “shortcuts” between roads which are otherwise 
unconnected.

Cheers
Stuart

I have a school car-park tagging question...


Suppose there's a vehicle entrance, distinct from the main/pedestrian entrance, 
leading (perhaps via some service road) to the school car-park. How should this 
best be tagged? Is

 amenity=parking_entrance

the appropriate tag (it's in the Wiki, but that page could be read as 
suggesting that this tag is an alternative to mapping an amenity=parking, not 
an addition to it). Or is

 entrance=parking

better? The Wiki doesn't mention 'parking' as a value for the 'entrance' tag, 
but maybe that doesn't matter.


Presumably an

 access=destination

tag will also usually be appropriate on the the school car-park?
