Now, I get your problem. We are talking about unclassified roads (no ref) right ? Stiil the Lane and Road Attributes should work as you can tag the "through_route" and the turning_lanes which might be also the single lane leading straight and allowing a turn. As you tag the direction on the turns (left/right) the router could get infos about the turns. fly _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
