I don't agree with this: marking the direction of the traffic sign is not noise, for a driver can be VITAL, also with the meaning of the traffic sign (the main purpose of a traffic sign). Why? Because in a way with two directions we need to know to what direction traffic sign it is for. It is not the same a road cross with an STOP forward than backward (with micromapping it is not the same one lamp than two) Put a key like direction is not the best option, because this information can be inside the key itself like traffic_sign:forward or traffic_sign:backward. Also it is a good thing to say of what side of the way the traffic sign is. In some countries traffic sign of a side is not the same as the other side specially in streets in a city. e.g.
traffic_sign:forward=ES:R2 highway=stop side=right Ok, OSMR do not use that...but other tools uses this information so it is important to keep it at the data. In a short-term, people like Mapillary or OSC will give us the opportunity (and the data) to map all the traffic signs in a way. Routers and navigation apps should be prepared for that. OSM is nowadays capable of show all this information. Don't make it disappear. Salut i mapes (Health and maps) yopaseopor
