Haven’t checked if it shows up as an error, but technically, the grass on each side is the “sidewalk”, and it is simply a shortcoming of the current tagging schemes that it’s not possible to properly tag it as pedestrian routable area.


Why not?
highway=footway/path surface=grass
Or for sidewalk sidewalk:both:surface=grass
   ???

These lowered kerbs represents points with easy access from sidewalk to street for wheelchair users or people pushing prams, and I think it’s worthwhile to map them.

I must admit that I only map crossings when they are between formed footpaths eg

https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/553154851, not where there is only a grass footpath.

    I do generally map crossings as long as they have lowered kerbs,
    like here:

That one, I would have terminated the crossing at the marked road, rather than taking it to the other side

    or even:

    
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/558999688670609448/577571624585527296/unknown.png

& that I wouldn't have marked at all. Does it show up in OSMose / OSM Inspector etc as an error because it's not "attached" to anything?

Thanks

Graeme
