this depends on the type of road and on the footways/pavements and other present. Look here at the pictures on the right to identiy different elements: http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stra%C3%9Fenquerschnitt some standards/proposed widths can be found here (again, it's in German but you can look at the pictures and tables): http://www.isl.uni-karlsruhe.de/module/strassenanlagen/querschnitt/querschnitt.html > And it has everything to do with > vehicles, because what you need to now is whether your vehicle, which can be > 1, 2, 4 ... meters wide will be able to drive along road in question. actually (in Germany, but I doubt that this differs a lot from other countries) a vehicle can not be more than 2,55m wide and 4 meters high. Otherwise it is not generally allowed to drive on roads (it must drive in exceptional convoys accompagnied by policecars). cheers, Martin _______________________________________________ talk mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
