How do I use and tag private roads?
I don't really bother.
If a road is open for travel I don't care much if it's private.
If a road has a gate, then, um, at least in most cases it's off limits.
The gate is a better signal for routing compared to private/public.
There are too may private roads

These are generally called permissive paths.

Residential roads in the UK often seem to have 'private road' signs, such as:
- 'Private road'
- 'Private road no parking'
- 'Private road no parking no turning'
- 'Residents only no unauthorised parking or turning'
How do people tag these roads? For which of these would you use access=private?

It depends whether a right of way exists. Things are rather complicated in the
UK. Private means private, so no entry by default. If you are visiting an
address on a private road, you have presumably been invited, explicitly or
implicitly. An unofficial sign residents only might not have any

As this discussion is about UK specifics, I thought it would be a good
plan to reach out to the talk-GB list.

The only things I would say you can commonly assume from such signs are
that the road is unadopted, and that the residents/owners would like you

In the USA, it depends upon whether the property owner has given permission for
public use. If a private road through an apartment complex is signed as
residents and guests only, for example, an outsider driving through can be
charged with trespassing.

In the UK there are rights of way which date back in time to the days of
pack horses and long distance footpaths. I don't think you have the
equivalent in North America. So in the UK a right of way may still follow
a privately maintained road.
It's probably better to leave the tagging of this

That's more likely for long established, and probably rural roads. For
