[Accessibility] Mapping “turning nodules” in pedestrian crossings

[Sebastian Dicke]

Hi,


useful extensions of tagging schemata, like subkeys or a wider value
range, are always useful to describe the world more accurate. I would
say that such extension would be useful and helpful. If a router/data
user is not interested in this special feature, he can ignore it. Is
this kind of nodule spread outside of London, too?


Regards Sebastian
