[Tagging] Zone 30 (maxspeed)

2010-07-06 Thread Sebastian Klein
Hi, there seems to be some inconsistency, how to tag a traffic zone with maximum speed limited to 30 km/h (German "Tempo-30-Zone"). [1] Tagwatch has the following tags for Europe (with maxspeed=30): [2] usages tag -- --- 944zone:maxspeed=DE:30 631zone:traffic=DE:30 516source:maxs

The fashion in the UK is now to impose 20mph speed limits on each and every street, rather than create zones with entries/exits. It amounts to much the same thing in the end, but it means that we simply put: maxspeed=20 mph+maxspeed:note=Oxford 20 mph zone (the whole city is a 20mph zone except f
