Map the entire footprint of the torii, and then map the section of the road that passes under with covered=yes? That's what I've done for at least one road (that passes under a building that is buit as a bridge over a ravine) https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/478979357 . It appears to render sensibly, and the tagging makes sense to me. _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
