Haven't done much bicycle tagging myself. Have you tried <a href="mailto:tagging@openstreetmap.org">tagging@openstreetmap.org</a>? I would highly recommend including pictures from flickr etc, since different people have different ideas about what a cycle lane is (especially people from different countries). Here in Chilliwack a cycle path is just a hard shoulder, like [<a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/question_everything/4051911346/">http://www.flickr.com/photos/question_everything/4051911346/</a>] (sometimes not even that wide or clean), but in Europe a cycle path might be more like [<a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/canadagood/3017259090/">http://www.flickr.com/photos/canadagood/3017259090/</a>] or [<a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/alanstanton/2319965160/">http://www.flickr.com/photos/alanstanton/2319965160/</a>]. Good to include photos of what you're thinking of.<br>

I realise there is some differences of opinion on this but I'm looking<br>
for guidance. Locally we seem to have a number of these tagged in<br>
different ways. CANVEC appears to tag some of them as highway=footway<br>
<br>
<a href="http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Paths" target="_blank">wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Paths</a> seems to have a wide range of<br>
acceptable options, including bicycle=designated, bicycle=yes,<br>
access=bicycle etc.<br>
<br>
What is recommended for multi-use paths where cycling is permitted but<br>
pedestrians have priority?<br>
<br>
highway=path<br>
<br>
highway=path<br>
bicycle=yes perhaps?<br>
<br>
Do we care that some are used as ski trails in winter? Does this<br>
suggest dec-march ski april-nov cycle?<br>
<br>
Ontario is planning to increase paved hard shoulders to promote cycle<br>
safety. Quebec I think already has many of these.<br>
<br>
paved_shoulder=yes<br>
shoulder:access:bicycle=yes<br>
<br>
Has been recommended, any suggestions on rendering rules?<br>
<br>
Thanks John<br>
