If you were not trying to tag this situation, but explain it to your non-OSM friends, would you say that there are 2 lanes in that picture ? At least in Belgium a lane is defined by having some white markings on the ground. If there are no markings, there is only 1 lane. I do not know how it is

The tagging as you described is correct. An alternative is to use simply cycleway=lane or cycleway:left=lane cycleway:right=lane if you want to be explicit about that there are lanes on both sides of the street. I venture to say that any data consumer that processes bicycle-data will

Hi, I would assume that in-carriageway cycle lanes (not separate cycle tracks) are one-way by default, just like the general traffic lanes they are part of. Certainly where I live, I do not feel the need to tag them as one-way. Kind regards, Adam On Wed, 9 May 2018, 18:13 Volker Schmidt,
