But we are not mapping the users of the lane, we are trying to map the construction, not? The construction is some paint on a surface that would be used by cars if there was no paint. Since the "construction" is the same for pedestrian lanes and cycle lanes, I thought that having a similar tagging scheme for both would be beneficial.
After all, we do use highway=footway and highway=cycleway as well, although they are constructed for different groups (pedestrians and "vehicles"). regards m On Wed, Dec 4, 2019 at 3:52 PM Martin Koppenhoefer <dieterdre...@gmail.com> wrote: > > Am Mi., 4.
