Hi.
I'm not very familiar with waterway tagging, but AFAIK these are tagged
as riverbanks, too.
Your proposal doesn't say anything about how to map sluice gates at
these bigger rivers as it proposes the usage on nodes only.
As sluice gates assumably will be more on bigger waterways, that seems

A lot of weirs I've seen don't have any kind of gates, they just
semi-dam a river to provide a water supply for nearby towns, the water
freely flows over the top of the weir.

Most states prohibit bicycles from sidewalks, or limit their speed to a

All the sluice gates I've seen are on the scale of 1m in opening size. A

there could be some large gates out there, so the proposal might need to
