Those aren't frontage roads. They're city streets which predate the freeway, which have been converted to one-way in places, as a convenience to the ramps. And a couple of the entrances do not come from these parallel city streets (those mistaken for "frontage roads") but directly from north-south streets. Also, the whole situation is going to change over the next 10 years as major improvements are made. > The only dispute is about tagging: > whether it's appropriate to use layer=-1 for that.

Landuse polygons and the like should NOT have layer tags. They are to be drawn by the renderers BELOW linear features, even if those linear features have negative layer values. Osmarender screws this up, but nobody with the necessary understanding of XSLT and how Osmarender uses it has been willing to fix the problem. -- David "Smith" a.k.a. Vid the Kid a.k.a.
