if similar stuff occurs frequently I would suggest opening also a JOSM validator
ticket

[Tagging] Feature Proposal - RFC - Pedestrian lane

2019-11-01 Thread Markus
Hi everyone,

Following the recent discussion about pedestrian lanes (marked lanes
on a roadway, designated for pedestrians), i've now written a proposal
page for a new key pedestrian_lane=*:

Best regards

Re: [Tagging] Feature Proposal - RFC - Pedestrian lane

2019-11-01 Thread Martin Koppenhoefer
currently your proposal is a description of the physical appearance of the 
feature, but for highways what is needed are usually functional and legal 
definitions. A cycleway is a way designated for bicycles, a motorway excludes 
slow traffic, and so on. 
To make sense of a pedestrian lane it would either have to bear implications on 
different modes of transport (e.g. in Switzerland motor vehicles can use this 
lane, unlike sidewalks or other footways), or we would have to state these for 
every instance of it (like we do for example with gates).
currently the proposal doesn’t say anything about it.

Cheers Martin
