In case of a road going through a settlement I would keep the road class. The wiki page on residential is also clear on this I thought: ‘This tag is used for roads accessing or around residential areas but which are not normally used as through routes (which would usually be classified highways or unclassified highways).’ Cheers Martin _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
