Dear all, I'm working with some roads in Central area in Hong Kong. Des Voeux Road Central is considered one of the most important roads in the area which I tagged it as highway=secondary, however another editor has repeatedly changed it to highway=service on the fact that that road is closed to motor vehicles except buses. An edit war has appeared.
Here is the relevant changesets and ways: https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/94428780#map=17/22.28199/114.15872 https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/242113655#map=17/22.28168/114.15911 https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/95558773 According to the wiki description of highway=secondary, such road "is not part of a major route, but nevertheless forming a link in the national route network." Des Voeux Road Central (between Queensway and Pottinger Street) is such a highway for buses only. Tens of bus routes are using this road to serve passengers between Wan Chai to Central, while other motor vehicles must use the other highways in the region (also tagged as highway=secondary). However, a highway=service is "generally for access", and also "for access for parking, driveways and alleys". Des Voeux Road Central is definitely not the case here. It is instead a major road in the road network usable by buses. What should I do here now? Michael -- Sent from KMail
