Yes. > cycleway just told, that's this way is bicycle=designated. > So why designation=? designation= means "this is the official designation of this way". It has nothing to do with bicycle=designated. In the UK, for example, a way might be tagged with "designation=restricted_byway" or "designation=bridleway". These denote the official right-of-way status of the way, with all sorts of legal implications (for example, cycling allowed, cycle racing _not_ allowed) which would be impractical to express through a long list of individual tags. "designation=cycleroad" would mean the same sort of thing: the German government's rules on cycleroads apply to this way. cheers Richard -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Bicycle-boulevards-tp23949507p23961860.html Sent from the OpenStreetMap - General mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ talk mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
