[OSM-newbies] Private Street

[Philip Barnes]

Its not nesessarilly permissive, permissive mean that the landowner has given permission to access, but can be withdrawn as it is not a legal right.
The uk term for these roads its unadopted, and it means that residents pay for upkeep, not the local authority.
Unless there is signage indicating access restrictions, then assume there aren't any.

Isn't this the kind of situation that access:permissive is meant for?

I have run across a couple of roads that are designated on the road sign as "Private Street".  I think this is a jurisdictional designation.  By that I mean I think these are streets on the edge of the city limits that are not in the city and therefore are privately maintained.  One of these streets had a sign that said "City Maintenance Ends".  My question is should these roads have the designation "access:private" when they are really no more private than any other residential street.
