Do you mean you see a difference between bay and lane or are both no
lanes at all.

First, I need more information which software uses this tag atm and how
it is used/spread across the globe. Not sure how far lanes:-tagging is
spead so far either. Needs a separate thread.

The wiki says to use lanes=* and at least one of lanes:backward/forward=*.

I usually add all if not 1+1=2 where only lanes=2 is needed but as
demonstration I tried to be exact as possible and rather include
unnecessary tags.

Would work in this case.

traffic_designation:lanes:backward=none|bicycle;bus;taxi

Not the same, see below.

But not fit real world as we loose the different access tags per mode.
Above example has a bus lane (blue sign) where taxi and bicycle is
allowed (additional white sign "frei").

That is a turnout. 

Maybe people are talking about something more... Separate(?) from the roadway? 
Some of the old tollways here in Japan used to have bus stops along them, so 
they had a small little area with an access road for the bus, separated by a 
median or hedge, that led to a bus stop accessible by pedestrians. The service 
raid reconnected to the tollway a few hundred meters up, allowing the bus not 
to have to exit the motorway to drop off and pickup people. 

Those have now closed, and they are merely used for emergency parking and have 
a call box. 

I understand that some (well, a lot) of turnouts have call boxes on popular, 
yet narrow roads, but the turnout is primarily used for passing. 
It sounds like these breakdown bays have larger areas or purpose built roads, 
kind of like a chain changing station. 

Or is everyone describing a turnout with a call box(emergency phone)?

Is there a problem with mapping bus bays as a short section of bus-only
lane (with the :lanes syntax)? That's how I would do it.
Iirc the possibility of doing this was even used as an argument for
:lanes and against the turn lanes relations in the past.

Like those, but to me it doesn't feel right to draw a separate service way
for them. There is no division like between dual carriageways. It's merely
the road that becomes a bit wider, so the buses can get out of the way of
the other traffic.

Drawing the platform as a separate way, or the cycleway that becomes
detached is not a problem, but indirect.

Re: [Tagging] Breakdown bays?

2015-02-28 Thread Warin
The bus bays and breakdown bays are short sections that exit from the 
nearest highway and return back to it, not too complex to tag as 
highway=service and service=bus_bay or breakdown_bay?


 Some breakdown bays have emergency telephones too.

I've not bothered with platform way here .. too many other things to do.

Did sleep one night and now think we should include bays and lanes
within the lanes:-Tagging

lanes=3
lanes:forward=2
lanes:backward=1
access:lanes:forward=yes|yes|emergency
access:lanes:backward=yes|emergency

All together I am not happy with the description of lanes=* and
lanes:*=* anymore. Where is it useful as we already do not count bicycle
lanes but do count exclusive bus or taxi lanes and even ones with access
forbidden but wide enough for motorized vehicles.

Would prefer to change lanes=* and lanes:*=* to be the numbers with
general access allowed and adding all additional lanes with access:lanes:

lanes=2
lanes:forward=1
lanes:backward=1
access:lanes:forward=yes|no|no
access:lanes:backward=yes|no
bicycle:lanes:forward=yes|designated|no
bicycle:lanes:backward=yes|yes
bus:lanes:forward=yes|no|designated
bus:lanes:backward=yes|designated
taxi:lanes:backward=yes|yes
width:lanes:forward=3|1.5|2.5
width:lanes:backward=3|3

Would be a road with forward a normal lane, a bicycle lane and either
bus bay or bus lane (depending on length) and backward a normal lane and
a bus lane with bicycle and taxi allowed.

We do not tag for broken cars ;-)

There are many different opinions on that matter. If an attribute of the
road changes, I split.

Why measure the length and add a tag instead of simply putting a tag along
the bay on the road? That seems a little bit too complicated to me.

Well, we already have the approved feature 
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:highway%3Dpassing_place for 
features of a very similar physical nature but for a different purpose. 
The consistent solution is to use highway=emergency_bay on nodes in the 
same way as for passing places.


And why do you want that kind of details? If it is tagged as 
emergency_bay you know it is big enough for a broken down vehicle. That 
is the only information you really need if you are having car problems. 
And adding an attribute to a short section of highway just results in 
further (in my opinion unnecessary) fragmentation of highways. If you 
really want to add the length you could use maxlength=* for the maximum 
vehicle length fitting in the bay. That would also be easier for data 
consumers to process.

Well, emergency=bay might interfere with access tagging and we should
probably use left/right as you will find them not only on dual carriage
roads.

emergency_bay=both/left/right ?

+1

How do we tag emergency lanes ?

At least in cases of lanes the position of the phone is also important.

I don't think of them as lanes, so I wouldn't use some :lanes-tag. I
thought that there is already a tag, that I simply put on the road for the
length of the bay - just like e.g. sidewalk=right. But that's obviously not
the case and it is not possible with highway=emergency_bay.

When tagged as node I lose the length. Tagging as separate way seem
counter-intuitive - there is no separate road. Tagging as area seems...

So what do you have in mind ? Tagging them as additional tag on the way
with highway=*? Using lanes:-Tagging ?

I use lanes:-Tagging for bus_bays by the way.

Hm...had a quick look how they are tagged and I'm not really convinced.
They are tagged as area beside the road (without any connection) or as
individual roads. In my opinion both does not fit well :-/

Thanks anyway,
