This is pretty much the canonical definition of highway=bridleway, at least here in the UK - a multi-user trail of limited maintenance quality, usually unsurfaced, where motor traffic is not permitted. That's what I'd suggest. If you do use highway=path, which I would recommend against, then absolutely: 1. add access tags, as per Dan's suggestion 2. add surface tags, as per http://www.openstreetmap.org/user/Richard/diary/20333 > By the way, might this be an artifact of the defaults in Potlatch? No. cheers Richard -- View this message in context: http://gis.19327.n5.nabble.com/path-vs-footway-tp5822937p5823020.html Sent from the Tagging mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
