Perhaps in Europe there are rules like that. In the US things labeled footway often allow bicycles. The real issue is that there are a lot of implicit rules for what values tags should be assumed to have, and it is a combination of lore and wiki. It should be a machine-readable description that data consumers can use. _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
