Sidewalks as separate ways.
I am working on some multi-use paths that travel on sidewalks for some
portions, like the I-205 corridor in Portland, Oregon. Mapping sidewalks
as a separate way is now an approved practice, and I'd like to do this
for the parts of the trail that become a sidewalk for awhile. However,
the approved tagging is highway=footway, footway=sidewalk. The trails
I'm working on are multi-use, thus they should be highway=path, so would
I need to add path=sidewalk to indicate they are a sidewalk?
If it's truly a sidewalk (rather than a sidepath) it should probably be
highway=footway, with bicycle=yes (or bicycle=designated?) if bikes are
allowed.
