Dear list Im tired and muddled. I think Sebastian posted swapped the 2 issues when he posted, sorry if its my mistake

Quoting fors...@ozonline.com.au:

Hi Sebastian
A quick reply now, its late, and maybe more considered tomorrow

its tagged highway=track
I can see no "access all=yes" so nothing is being asserted about the access
that suits me for now as I know nothing about the track

I think I can see a gate or fence, not sure,
38°11′52″S, 145°8′22″E
-38.1976644, 145.1393379

and maybe the other end
38°12′12″S, 145°8′3″E
-38.2032271, 145.1342893


When I load a map file on my gps unit it will show this way as accessible for me to ride based on the OSM tagging. Unless there is an explicitly tag bike=no, private or similar then it?s will still think that I can legally ride on it.

I don't know if you can legally ride on it or not. I doubt that through
traffic is treated differently to local, you are probably either
allowed in or not. I doubt bikes are treated differently

I have replied privately because you have asked privately, this stuff
is OK for the list and you would get some more and probably  better
ideas.

in summary
If there are gates then your gps problem is solved
no bike= tag is called for, bikes are probably the same as cars
tag it private if you know it is private, don't guess
If your GPS wants to send you that way its not necessarily a fault with
the map

Are you happy to put this on the list?

Tony
