<div><div dir="ltr">It would appear that the rendering for a bridge might include the parapet. Much of my local mapping however includes barriers along roads. These are generally connected to the bridge parapet. It would seem reasonable to therefore have a seperate way for each bridge paparet that links the barriers either side of the bridge. Perhaps, barrier=wall, wall=parapet. Parapet is however used in more that one context <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parapet" target="_blank">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parapet</a> If bridge parapets were to be mapped would they therefore need a more distinct name in this context "bridge_parapet" of should there be some sort of relation between the highway segment of the bridge and its associated parapets? <br><br>At the moment I just leave the barriers "hanging" but it doesn't seem like a very satisfactory approach to mapping given they are attached to the bridge.<br><br>Regards<span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><br><br>Dudley<br><br><br> </font></span></div></div>
