"cycleway=track" I propose to treat this tag as a special case of fixme - it indicates some sort of cycleway parallel to road, without any additional details.
In theory it is possible to add tags that specify surface, side of road, width by tags like cycleway:track:left:surface, but it is ridiculous. Especially specifying geometry (where cycleway is) is nearly impossible (and sometimes impossible in any sane way - sometimes cycleway is next to road but distance changes). These things are trivial for tagging as a separate way (with highway=cycleway with normal set of tags). Especially geometry is defined in a standard way, not by some ridiculous tags. At least this is my experience from tagging cycleway data in Kraków and using this data to render a map of bicycle related infrastructure. 2014-12-22 23:49 GMT+01:00 fly <lowfligh...@googlemail.com>: > As we have tags for different kind of *lane the only problem is > cycleway=track. > > Now we have two solutions: > > 1. deprecate cycleway=track in favour of cycleway=*_track > 2. add a new key like bicycle_track=* > > My two cents > > fly > > Am 22.12.2014 um 12:30 schrieb Hubert: > > The need to distinguish between obligatory and optional cycle ways > > isquite common.
