I never said you had to use relations. In fact, I said you don't. I wouldn't call the use of relations "nutty", though. > As long as you are free to change lanes, I disagree.

You can add "maximum height" along with "maximum speed" to your list of lane-specific data. I don't find it very important, but if you want to allow for this, without messing up anyone else, feel free. > > Have you ever been on a bridge with a Jersey barrier?

If you want to *also* tag lane speeds, feel free. http://bikelaneblog.files.wordpress.com/2008/02/pulaski-bridge-walkway.jpg?w=324&h=241 One bridge or two? If it's one, then you are off-topic.
