OK, I've googled a bit for images of cycleways to get an idea about when other people would tag a cycleway as a separate highway... (sorry, it's a bit of a Belgium-centric selection...) Cycleway separated by 30cm of grass, many connections at driveways: http://www.soundandvision.be/rijbewijs/wegwet/afbeeldingen/wegwet11a.JPG One meter of grass between cycleway and road, still quite a number of connections to the road: http://users.nucleus.be/adri/gfx/fietspad5.jpg Instead of grass, some small bushes: http://www.provant.be/binaries/aanleg%20subs%20westerlo%20gevaertlaan_tcm7-13420.jpg Not a cycle lane, but not separated by a kerb: http://skender.be/blog/afbeeldingen/VoskenslaanVerkeerslichtB.jpg Separated by a 50cm wide platform: http://www.laurencelibert.be/assets/1308/fietspad_article.jpg Separated by a line of trees, no kerb: http://www.mobielvlaanderen.be/figs/convenants/MOB8320F01.jpg Separated by 5m of grass: http://www.vldekeren.be/wp-images/media/puihoek1.jpg Parked cars, small patch of grass with some trees: http://blogsimages.skynet.be/images_v2/002/516/036/20070710/dyn009_original_640_480_pjpeg_2516036_7f35443c9fa0bdee2e8faf85200bc3ab.jpg Diagonally parked cars, some grass and trees: http://blogsimages.skynet.be/images_v2/002/516/036/20070710/dyn009_original_640_480_pjpeg_2516036_73826f8b3ac379fa17660f754ef96e9b.jpg My opinion is quite easy: they're all just "cycleway=track" as part of the main road, but I'd like to see what others do in each of these situations.
