I strongly oppose changing "separate ways or tag on main road may be preferred in different places, depending on local consensus" to "tagging on main road is always preferable in some situation". Inventing new tags to describe combined and segregated footway and cycleway (both with its own surface) is complicated even in case of using separate way for this structure. Tagging it on main road, just because on certain distance there is no strip of grass separating it from main road would make necessary to use ridiculous tags. Even in case of long stretches of road, footway and cycleway separated only by curbs tagging it as one element is apoor idea. In extreme case - there is one place in my city with cycleway between two footways. Cycleway, footways and road are all separated by curbs. Good luck with tagging it as tags on the main road (cycleway:right:central:surface=asphalt?). ====== BTW, in my area there is a recent trend to tag footways and cycleway as separate ways - even in cases of footways and cycleway separated solely by a painted line on surface. _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
