It seems you already answered your own question. Having the node with the barrier in the c-d road would make it also be a stile that is blocking travel in that road. I've used your 2nd tagging, with the node with the stile a small distance away from the connecting road. -- Lennard ___ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk

If there is a barrier on a node that is part of the c-d road, that barrier does block traffic on c-d.

Indeed it is. If it helps, think of a way for a road as representing the centreline of the road, rather than its entire width. That way having the stile node offset using a short length of footway doesn't seem so odd. -- Jonathan (Jonobennett) ___ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk

I would therefore use the 2nd option, but my positioning of node 'e' will depend on where my photo says it is. Regardless of routing applications; the best option here is to ask yourself how many stiles are there on the road between c to d. If the answer is none, then the way c-d should not have any node tagged as a stile. ___ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk

Should be this: >or should I put in a node "e" and tag that with barrier = stile: c | | a---e-b | | d or, better c . . . a..e.b . d because the path has to actually join the road. b is the node of intersection.

Re: [OSM-talk] positioning of barrier = stile
I always put stiles and gates offset from any vehicular highway just near the beginning of the relevant pedestrian way - even if this means creating a stub for the pedestrian way where this has yet to be surveyed (and then the stub also serves as a reminder to go back and do the additional mapping!). The problems with placing the barrier on the vehicular highway or at the intersection node are clear!
