Hi Eckhart,

Your right, voting has come to an end for the Conditional Restrictions proposal, which was approved. A statement was not made on this list as Ole and I are working on how best to write the feature page so that some of the concerns raised (about complexity / difficulty to understand) are reduced as much as possible.

Like Martin, I'm not hugely convinced about the need for complicated turn restrictions (most of the restrictions will be on the road and the detail on the turn sign will simply be advanced warning for the driver). Having said that, you have provided a few examples so I have looked into it:

1. Currently we tag a no left turn restriction using "restriction = no_left_turn". 2. If we want this to apply only to HGVs then the key is changed so that it become "restriction:hgv =no_left_turn".

To draw the comparison with "Conditional Restrictions" the above tags cover of <restriction type>, <transportation mode> and the tag value. There is no need to specify <direction> as this is already captured in the relation (from, via, to).
I am not sure you can say this. It should work where the junction angles are close to 90 degrees, but for a shallow "Y" junction things might need a hint as to whether it is a curve to the right with a junction to the left, or a curve to the left with a junction to the right. The type of restriction should reflect the road signs. At a T-junction, a mandatory left turn could be considered different to a no right turn, even if they are effectively the same thing. This cannot be derived from the geometry alone.
