Links are by default oneway, I think that's what the other person is getting at.<br><br>stuart.<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Sun, Mar 9, 2008 at 5:57 PM, Jack Burton <<a href="mailto:jack@saosce.com.au">jack@saosce.com.au</a>> wrote:<br>

<br>
A few days ago, I noticed a fair number of small ways in Adelaide's<br>
suburbs tagged as highway=secondary_link.<br>
<br>
There's no reference to secondary_link in Map Features, Australian Roads<br>
Tagging, or in any proposed feature on the wiki.<br>
<br>
So I assumed this was just an error, and changed them to<br>
highway=secondary so that all renderers would display them properly.<br>
<br>
Last night I noticed that a lot of them had been changed back to<br>
highway=secondary_link and about half of those were tagged additionally<br>
with note='LEAVE IT A secondary_link OR ENTER ALL THE OTHER DETAILS'.<br>
<br>
So I searched a little deeper in the wiki and found only two references<br>
anywhere to highway=secondary_link, both in German and both suggesting<br>
that secondary_link was not a valid value for the highway tag (at least<br>
I think that's what they were suggesting -- my German is a little<br>
rusty).<br>
<br>
I'd like to change these back to highway=secondary again (as I have done<br>
already for those not tagged with the note), but first want to make sure<br>
I'm not doing the wrong thing, so thought I'd ask the list.<br>
<br>
The alternative suggestion in the note ("enter all the other details")<br>
doesn't seem to make much sense for these ways. The ways in question are<br>
all short two node links between the sides of dual-carriageway roads<br>
where right turns to/from lesser (i.e. tertiary, residential,<br>
unclassified or service) roads are allowed. It doesn't seem to make<br>
sense for these very short ways to have names or refs, and things like<br>
maxspeed would seem to be moot on such short ways. Tags like is_in or<br>
postal_code wouldn't make sense either, since there are no addresses on<br>
any of these ways. So I'm not sure what was meant by "all the other<br>
details".<br>
<br>
Can anyone shed some light on the most appropriate tags for these ways?<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
<br>
<br>
Jack.<br>
