This works only if the section tagged with layer = -1 only includes that which is covered by the bridge. Tagging an entire road which happens to pass under a bridge as layer = -1 does not match what's on the ground. _______________________________________________ Talk-us mailing list Talk-us@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-us
