According to map features the value for the lanes key should be.

I've been tagging to this definition.

This makes more sense to me because you can tag two way single lane
roads with lanes = 1. The map features definition on the other hand
doesn't give an obvious way to tag these roads. lanes = 0.5 perhaps.
It also runs into trouble with 3- and 5-lane roads. Tagging the total
number of lanes makes a lot more sense to me. (per carriageway if
applicable, since each should be mapped separately)
I have recently posted a similar question to the newbies list. There
are two roads I've mapped recently where a short section has a width
restriction meaning cars can only pass in one direction at a time, and I
don't know how to map it. If lanes is the total lanes for a way this
would work, but how does osmarender render this ?
Thanks
Paul.
