I wouldn't tag the road with anything. Simply because the rules/laws apply not to the road but to the cycleway. Any bicycle-router should prefer a cycle track (or anything with bicycle=designated) over a nearby road. > 2.

This is another story. This "restriction" should be tagged directly on the cycle track. > I see that something like "alternative" may end up being used for suggested > routes, but is there any other (potential new) values for the access tag > that may help here? As those are in fact legal restrictions/recommendations IMO the access key is the correct key for this. Maybe something like foot=discouraged . Native speakers are very welcome here to suggest much better values. ;-) regards, Martin _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
