bridge=culvert is nonsense: A culvert is not a bridge.<br>

</div></div><br>You always claim the "culver=yes" has been used by 70
people. But we also have hundreds of dozen "tunnel=yes" on waterways
which are probably culverts. <br>My proposal is to change the wiki to
tunnel=culvert (then forget the bridge/ford). At least, this would make
live easier for data consumers which do not really care about the
difference between tunnel=yes and culvert=yes or pipe=yes or sewer=yes
but could deal with tunnel=* (if we recommand
