 Hello all,

 I usually name bridges with name=x but this often interrupts a highway's
 name.

 It would make sense to me to have bridge:name=x since we have already
 have bridge=yes

 How about using a relation for the bridge?  This would also be
 desirable because there are bridges with multiple carriageways on
 them.

What about naming the road with a relation and use the bridge's name in
the name tag? Works both ways.

[OSM-talk] Naming bridges (and roads over them)

It would make sense to me to have bridge:name=x since we have already

I see this was discussed over a year ago on
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Talk:Key:bridge

I would like to get a consensus and put it up on
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:bridge

cheers,
