Agreed. And when mapping I tag barrier=gate if there is a gate. However, if you were writing a routing program, it would be unwise to assume that you can drive through a barrier=gate if no additional access is specified. Often a gate is locked shut. -- Ed Avis <[email protected]> _______________________________________________ talk mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
