Subject: [Talk-GB] Gates open/closed by default<br>
<br>
I'd like to distinguish between two kinds of gate on private roads:<br>
<br>
- those where the gate is closed by default (eg automatic closing)<br>
- those where the gate is open by default (the gate exists, but is<br>
rarely if ever closed)<br>
<br>
Currently I'm marking both as barrier=gate & access=private, but I<br>
can't see an obvoius way to mark the open/closed by default aspect.<br>
One thought was to use access=permissive on those that are open (with<br>
the highway still access=private).<br>
<br>
Any suggestions?<br>
<br>
Stephen<br>
PS, I do want to mark the gate on the map even if it is always open<br>
