Agree, but still would think both are better. Plus, it's difficult to tag the way(s), as we don't necessarily know where the 7% ends. Whereas the sign is a single point location and can be easily geographical tagged. On Thu, 9 Feb 2023, 8:03 pm Warin, <61sundow...@gmail.com> wrote: > > On 8/2/23

Hi Graeme, Thank you. The quiet "area" signage is a basket case for me, the reason being most signage is " in residential areas" or "in built up areas" and I have no conceivable way of defining those "areas" in OSM. Maybe the sign could be tagged on a node, or maybe a node (member) of a

Hi Ben, Andrew, Graeme, Agree 100%, the hazard is the "steep descent" (or similar), which most likely (but not always) coincides with the include/gradient sign such as "15%" (and we might see "incline=-15" tag used as well). possible tags are: hazard=Descent <-- because this is applicable to

Andrew beat me to it. There is a speed restriction associated with the "Must use low gear signs" under the road rules. It states: "you must drive in a gear that is low enough to limit the speed of your vehicle without using the foot brake." Unfortunately it's not a defined limit although

Good point. If it's a restriction, it should be more like the maxspeed tag, maxspeed:hgv=* So something like low_gears:hgv=designated rather than using the hazard key. On Wed, 18 Jan 2023 at 11:25, Ben Kelley wrote: > Just one thought on this: > > The "use low gears" it not itself the hazard.

Just one thought on this: The "use low gears" it not itself the hazard. It is the steep hill that is the hazard (where the mitigation strategy for HGVs is to use low gears. Same for rollover/sharp bend. - Ben On Wed, 18 Jan 2023 at 10:38, Andrew Hughes wrote: > Thank You Greame, > > The

Hi All, Can anyone suggest the most appropriate way to take ways where the road is signed with "Use Low Gears"? Bonus questions... 1. In the case of SA, there's online reference material and even an Act to enforce this legally. How/Should that be tagged ref::: and how so, that this is the SA
