I imagine that virtually all real-world pedestrian ways that are one-way for pedestrians would be on dedicated pedestrian ways - that is, highway=footway. If that's correct, oneway=yes can be interpreted as referring to pedestrians on footways (it looks like osm-carto already does this?). I struggle to imagine a one-way pedestrian way that is also open to bicycle riders (dismount still works in this scheme). Perhaps the only other thing could be highway=path, where there could be some ambiguity with bicycles. But at least we can avoid the "street with sidewalk" interpretation. Does anyone have counterexamples? --Jarek _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
