This way each special condition can be handled separately without cluttering the map with tags. A road can have a set of general access tags, and than use relations for the complicated access conditions, such as psv only on school days, goods delivery 10-12 mon-fri + 11-12 saturdays in july, destination for taxies exept saturdays after 22, and so on. That will allow you to do all these special condition without access:vehicle:forward/backward. I havn't seen that complicated access restrictions in the areas I map, so I have no need for it, but I know that reality is a little different in Europe. -- Brgds Aun Johnsen via Webmail _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
