I read it back in December, but I disagree. The cause of the situation is
the huge problems with the crossing=* values for marked crossings. That

Please check out my proposal, as I've laid out several reasons. As someone
who has personally mapped thousands of crossings, the current schema is
absolute garbage for reliably collecting accurate data that can be reliably
interpreted by data consumers
This subthread is doing a good job of showing why "uncontrolled" is opaque
to users and mappers, as it is primarily an issue of local legal questions
and not physical, on-the-ground features, despite the fact that
"uncontrolled" in OSM is meant to also describe those (like markings).
Because it's a

I listed three discrete categories being covered in the current schema:
on-the-ground markings, signals for pedestrians, and signals for
cross-traffic. There is some further confusion regarding the word
"uncontrolled" having to do with right-of-way, but I'll

It won't be productive to hash out the entirety of problems with
crossing=uncontrolled and the proposal to use crossing=marked in this
thread, so I'll ask that we have in-depth discu

You are correct. To clarify, my use of quotation marks is meant to

to one. There is no

Without wanting to invite discussion in this thread, this is not what
"uncontrolled" means in OpenStreetMap, and it's one of the reasons we
should change it.

I'm seeing some tracks with multiple tracktype's like this:
Way 364707088 [highway=track, name=FR 514, tracktype=grade2;grade1;grade3]
Is this generally accepted practice?
If so, why?

IMHO does not make sense at all. Most likely
I've occasionally seen mappers do this sort of thing intentionally. They
may know (or guess) that a particular way has more than one tracktype so
they simply add other values and separate them with a semicolon.
In such cases, if one cannot determine what the tracktype actually is, it
might be bett

I don't agree with you. I think you are forgotten all the other items to

cycleways are no

Yes, but a traffic light for whom? I've seen mappers who assume it means

crossing=marked indicates that a crossing has markings. That's it: the
"type" of crossing is declared to be whether it has markings on the ground
or not.

But the meaning of "control" varies by region and municipality, and does
not imply the presence or absence of ground markings. A controlled crossing
