A prominent one in Seattle is the Burke-Gillman Trail. Although I've been yelled at once by a rider that felt it should only be for bikes, it is a multi use footpath. I hope your team isn't changing trails like the Burke-Gillman to include a footway=sidewalk tag. While these do a times run along roads, they are not really sidewalks. Can we get some assurances that named footpaths will be left to someone with local knowledge to review? Clifford -- @osm_seattle osm_seattle.snowandsnow.us OpenStreetMap: Maps with a human touch
