However, in practical terms it happens very often that in a first mapping of a road the foot and/or bicycle crossings, as they are nicely visible on aerial imaging, ar mapped, but not the crossing foot- and/or cycle-ways, mainly because the details are not visible on aerial imagery or the mapper is not interested, at that stage, in foot/cycling details. And the distinction, at least in Italy, between foot-only and combined foot-cycle crossing are well visable on satellite imagery. Also traffic-signals are often clearly visible because of the stop lines. Hence in that first round it is easy to map crossings and basic crossing types. The crossing way is then often added later. To me it comes natural not to remove the existing tagging on a crossing node when I add a crossing way later.
