>More generally, does highway= indicate the physical appearance as surveyed -- or the intended use, as designated?
Hi Martin, First map the feature: Use the highway tag to describe how it looks physically. Add the legal status: Use designation=* to add a legal status (e.g. designation=public_bridleway) as the most important tag in England & Wales. The horse=yes tag is useful for global users who don't pick up the designation tag in their routing services. This is as documented at https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/UK_access_provisions#First_map_the_feature Quote: "Note: Rather than being influenced by the name of the access provision, tag the feature according to what you observe on the ground. For example a 'Public Footpath' that runs along the route of a farmer's track should be tagged as highway=track rather than highway=footway." Hope this helps, *Rob*
