[Tagging] Unremovable bollards

Hi all, there's the "bollard" key with documented value "rising" and "removable" [0] but I often encounter also bollards which cannot be removed easily. I would love to see the "unremovable" value in the documentation. Should I open a proposal page for this one value? That sounds a bit of an overk

I think that by default bollards are not removable, and that if a bollard is not tagged as removable, it is reasonable to assume it's not removable. On Sat, Feb 15, 2020 at 6:54 PM Hauke Stieler wrote: > Hi all, > > there's the "bollard" key with documented value "rising" and "removable" > [0] b

I don't have real data to check your statement (except the mapped bollards in OSM) but personally I don't know if that's true for all regions. I personally have the feeling that the amount is at least equal and in Hamburg, Germany I have the impression that more bollars are removable then unremovab

I have tagged around 1k bollards without "removable" or "raising", because they looked reasonably difficult to remove, even thought most likely nearly all of them are in one way or the other removable and not really fixed. My interpretation of the the absence of these tags has been that the object

Hi, Checking https://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/keys/bollard#values unremovable is already used a lot, though irremovable is used also but four times less. So I guess you can document the value. (And no tag doesn't mean unremovable of course.) I would like to add that there's a common type in Pari

These things may just damage cars, but they definitely hurt cyclists and pedestrians when they hit them. They are often badly visible and their only purpose, at least here in Italy, to discourage car owners from entering cycle or foot paths. I know personally of cyclists who ended up in hospital.

Sorry to be insistent.
