A quick check on wikipedia found this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Southern_Expressway#Operation Apparently it stays open during fri/sat and sun/mon when the direction doesnt change. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reversible_lane#Examples also shows that its not a unique situation, maybe its worth a look at how others have worked with it.

I dont live in the area, and only found the way due to its funny tagging (ie.

In between the one-way periods, it's closed for changeover (access=no), while operators review video cameras covering the whole length to ensure no vehicles remain on the road.

I've also seen roads that are one way in a particular direction based on when the school bus is running and in which direction it is running at that time of day. There doesn't seem to be much point looking at opening_hours=* tagging, since that generally only covers on or off. The whole section of road would need to have the direction of the way in the same direction so you could make simple references to forward/backward. After that it comes down to making stuff up and see how much flak you cop on the tagging list :D Since you didn't mention a starting time, I'm going to assume midnight. oneway:forward=00:00-10:30 oneway:reversed=12:00-22:30 ___ Talk-au mailing list Talk-au@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-au

I received this follow-up email to a query about some strange tagging. I thought it was worth throwing out there to get the lists opinion on the appropriate way to tag this road. In summary, it is 21km long and is one-way for 10.5hrs, dual-way for 1.5hr, then one-way in the opposite direction for 10.5hrs and dual-way again for 1.5hr.

Sorry to take so long to respond -- have been away from OSM for some time. That must have been the Southern Expressway -- it's a rather bizarre road. At 21km in length, it's probably the world's longest one-way street. It's "tidal" in that it changes direction to suit traffic patterns at different times of day. During the week, it's one-way in the Northbound direction between 2am-12:30pm, one-way Southbound between 2pm-12:30am, and entry prohibited for changeover between 12:30am-2am & between 12:30pm-2pm. Just to make things more confusing, on weekends & public holidays, the Northbound & Southbound time-slots get swapped around! I couldn't figure out how to represent such a strange road accurately in OSM way back when I left those tags you saw. And I still can't figure it out now. I'm beginning to think that it might not be possible.

Re: [talk-au] Australian Coastline
Are you able to explain how to check easily with JOSM if part of the coastline is missing? With reading about all the rendering problems with coastline not being a continuous polygon a relation seemed the best way. 2 other reasons for a coastline relation. 1) I was also planning to use the relations in for the maritime borders as the baseline as per my original email that no one commented on. 2) Consistent naming of coastline per state for boating with only the name needing to be in the relation. With creating the relations I decided to make a coastline relation per state to cut down on the amount needed to download for a specific state.

Add a relation if you have a valid reason to use one, like sharing a boundary between sections of land based national park and marine park, but using a relation for error checking seems wrong to me.
