I respect your points to defend cycleway, and to tag the "pedestrians allowed" by adding a foot=yes, but I'm quite sure the original problem in belgium was not quite a "pedestrian only" case. The fact is, that here in france (but I think this is the same case in belgium) we have those "so called" cycleway where are allowed : - bicycle - pedestrian - skate boards - roller blades - pedestrian with dogs - wheel chair - small plastic cars for children etc. Will anyone tag this : highway=cycleway;foot=yes;skate=yes;roller=yes;.... ? Will anyone tag this : highway=rollerway;foot=yes;cycleway=yes;... ? > For cycleways that allow pedestrians? Sounds quite restricted ;-) Well, I tag them highway=path, and that's not restricted, it correspond to the reallity : "open to all non-motorized vehicles" ... more thinking about that ... The problem here, might not come from path, or cycleway, but from the access keys. Those keys are too restricted, and too specific. So too badly usable. I'm probably dreaming here, but a classification schem would have been of more use here : - non_wheeled - non_motorized - car_sized - truck - explosive So, in that case, yeah, we would have simplified and dropped path/cycleway/footway/track replacing it by : highway=primary non_motorized=yes ( thus describing a major cycleway in only two tags ) -- Sylvain Letuffe [EMAIL PROTECTED] qui suis-je : http://slyserv.dyndns.org _______________________________________________ talk mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
