My guess is you missed this when deleting the rest. >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". This is something I want to discuss. Right now my proposal has 3 styles (subtags only (near), always as separate ways (far) and mixed). It's still possible to tag sidepaths separated by curbs only as a separate drawn and vice versa. The mixed style is a compromise, because in my experience form following this mailing list and the german forum far sidepaths are most commonly tagged as separate ways while near sidepaths are preferred as tags on the 'main' road. I personally like my sidepaths to be tagged as separate ways, as it can hold more information most notably the course of a way. But I have also noticed the need for the data of those ways on the central ways. Mostly for maps of larger areas (one city). It is this conflict I want to resolve. >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.

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?). No, since tagging on the "main road" already needs a higher level of abstraction, one would only tag that the cycleway on the right site of the road has an asphalt surface. (cycleway:right:surface=asphalt). The placement of the cycleway in regard to the footway(s) would be uncalled-for. In addition that situation would also be a problem when tagging the sidepath using highway=path + segregated=yes + bicyle=designated + foot=designated >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. That's a different story and reminds me on a conflict of separately dram turn lanes and the tag turn:lanes=* from about a year ago. Yours Hubert
