I think that while it's certainly good practice to give priority to pedestrians on any shared (unsegregated) infrastructure, I'm not sure how you would tag it in addition to segregated=no. On canal towpaths, the Canal & River Trust's cycling FAQ states that "Pedestrians are generally the most vulnerable and have priority at all times". https://canalrivertrust.org.uk/enjoy-the-waterways/cycling/cycling-faqs _______________________________________________ Talk-GB mailing list Talk-GB@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-gb
