Currently in OSM we have two tags to describe some kind of slope that also get rendered in the mapnik chart and a couple of others: natural=cliff embankment (in the form man_made=embankment (feature) and embankment=yes (attribute)) Is this categorisation sufficient for any type of slope? Ther

lanes:bicycle=* and lanes:foot=* If you want to get specific, like, on a typical major thoroughfare on Portland's westside on the approach to an intersection, you'd have something like... highway=primary name=Southwest Murray Boulevard cycleway=lane lanes:forward=5 lanes:backward=3 bicycle:lanes:f
