I probably would tend to use 'service' for both (based on function) and use 'track' for something unsurfaced (tracktype=) but wide enough for a 4-wheeled vehicle and then use access= to describe privacy or otherwise ... But each to his own!

Yes, I sometimes use service and sometimes track. In general if it's a dead-end path to a set of garages I call it a 'track', while a well-maintained road that just happens to be private is 'service'. -- Ed Avis <[email protected]> _______________________________________________ talk mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
