Is it public access, or is it owned privately? I ask because there is
a strong correlation between public roads and decent maintenance where
I come from. And as it happens, Mapnik does show access=private.

(the general problem with rendering surface is that there's a lot of
values and you will find it very hard to render without always having
to look for a key to tell you what the colour/shading means). Which is
not to say that knowing which roads are cobbled wouldn't be handy
sometimes (but I probably think of this as something you need to
render for yourself (cue ad for Maperitive...))
