<div dir="ltr"><div>If the road is washed out to the point where it is completely gone (as opposed to only part of it being washed out) and a new road would have to be rebuilt on a new route, I would just delete the segment of road that got washed out. The road isn't there now, so it should be shown as such in OSM.<br>

Many roads are washed out. They are not just closed, they are gone. Some of these roads will take months to get to a point where the public is allowed to use them, and years before they are completely rebuilt[1]. How should such roads be tagged / mapped? <div>
