Indeed. In Potsdam, NY, we get enough snow that we need those wide grass strips to plow the snow onto. But they're not practical in some places, so the sidewalk can come close to the road in places. It's still a sidewalk, though, and not a "way" of its own. There is not a wonderful solution for how do map pedestrian routing when it differs from road-associated routing. -- --my blog is at http://blog.russnelson.com Crynwr supports open source software 521 Pleasant Valley Rd. | +1 315-600-8815 Potsdam, NY 13676-3213 | Sheepdog _______________________________________________ Talk-us mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-us
