<br>
How do we tag the roundabouts in a relation of hiking route minor problem but bicycle routes (knooppunten) and public transport routes ?<br>
I cute the roundabouts in pieces highway to highway. Is this the properly way?<br>
But gives the tester prg like <a href="http://osma.vmarc.be/" target="_blank">http://osma.vmarc.be/</a> or <a href="http://analyser.openstreetmap.fr/cgi-bin/index.py?relation=2718669" target="_blank">http://analyser.openstreetmap.fr/cgi-bin/index.py?relation=2718669</a> a alert?<br>
Roundabouts you must take at the right hand.(Europe)<br>
1 Example south point 03 to north roundabout 5 highways, coming from the south leaving first highway to point 28, got a nice line in relation.<br>
Coming back from the opposite way from point 28 the way must leave at the 4 highway to point 03 a have a gap in the relation.<br>
If the junction=roundabout must be keep to getter you see symbol roundabout.<br>
2 Example what with a large square, marketplace, which cannot be tagged as roundabout but still need to drive ride right hand around it?<br>
situation like first example you have a gap in the relation line.<br>
<br>
On response of Guy question several wikipage were recommended not easy to find your way.<span><font color="#888888"><br>
