Generally speaking, how do we reconcile these two?

bicycle=yes
highway=steps

What is a data consumer supposed to infer from this as opposed to just highway=steps? As long as foot=designated, aren't cyclists always allowed to get off the bike and push/carry it? And wouldn't they have to when there are steps?

Hi DaveF,

Acting on advice, I have already split the Bridleway and re-tagged 2 sections as:

bicycle=yes
designation=public_bridleway
foot=designated
highway=steps
horse=designated
incline=down  (or up)
lit=no
surface=paved

The steps can be seen on aerial imagery (a bit fuzzy on Bing, but particularly clear in the aerial imagery whose name shall not be mentioned in OSM), plus I remember running through there a few  months ago, so I know that the steps are there.   I intend to visit again soon and add more detail (number of steps, etc.)

Between these is a section of the orignal way, which is now https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/1277843368

I hope this helps and that you agree with the tagging.

Regards,
Peter

Could you provide the link to the OSM way please?

Advice, please.

A local Public Bridleway has a few (3, 4 or 5 from Aerial imagery) steps going down before it passes under a road bridge, and a similar number up again on the other side.

How can I best tag this?  According to the wiki, "highway=steps" seems to be *an alternative to*, not *a qualification of * "highway=bridleway". I don't want to mislead consumers by breaking the bridleway, but I don't want cycling consumers to be unaware of the fact that there are a few steps to descend / ascend, which may require a dismount.



Regards,
Peter
