The tag highway=track should be used for road which are primarily for agricultural or forestry use. It's also possible to use highway=service for narrow roads which are used by 2-track (4+ wheel) motor vehicles. However, if you are talking about a paved multi-use path, bicycle path or footway which happens to be 3 or 4 meters wide and therefore a police car or emergency vehicle can fit, generally these are still mapped as highway=cycleway or =footway or =path if they are designed and designated for pedestrians or bicycles. (In towns and villages, wide streets for pedestrians are mapped as highway=pedestrian. Usually emergency motor vehicles have access, and there might be access for delivery trucks at some hours) Do you have an example of a particular path or road which is debatable? -- Joseph Eisenberg On Wed, May 20, 2020 at 10:10 AM Mike Thompson <miketh...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hello, > > Just because a trail is wide enough to accommodate a four wheeled > vehicle does that make it highway=track if it was constructed for, and > its primary and intended use is for, recreation and not for forestry > or agriculture access? > > Mike > > _______________________________________________ > Tagging mailing list > Tagging@openstreetmap.org > https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging >
