<div dir="ltr"><div><div>Some months ago this the issue of jaagpad/chemin de halage was also discussed here.<br></div>One of the last advices of the thread was to use cycleway if cycling is permitted but all other traffic is forbidden except traffic for service. The explanation was that on all cycleways service cars for maintenance have access. As a result I changed some of those paved ways along the Albertkanaal in Limburg in this way when I met them.<br>

<br><div dir="ltr">I guess it really depends on the local situation. In my area (Mol) most towpaths (which is the correct English term for "jaagpad") have no traffic restrictions at all. Technically they are just "unclassified" roads. Maybe we should be creative and start tagging them as highway=towpath ? ... and add restrictions as indicated by traffic signs ?<span></span></div>
</blockquote><div><br>The problem is that they wouldn't render anymore then. Just tag them as the kind of way they are. path or unclassified generally. cycleway and service more as an exception.<br><br>That it was used before to tow the boats is quite obvious to deduce from their position along the canals.<br>
<br>Just my 2 cents.<span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><br><br>Jo<br></font></span></div></div>
