https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:highway%3Demergency_access_point sounds good. 

 

There's a whole bunch of these along highways and beaches in Victoria https://www.esta.vic.gov.au/emergency-markers

G’day all,

 

I don’t know about the rest of Australia, but following some tragedies where emergency services didn’t know exactly where to go for some beach responses, many councils are now placing signs at the entrances to beach access tracks with a unique location number (eg “L7” for the 7th access point to Leighton Beach), along with emergency services contact information (eg dial 000).

 

How do we go about mapping these?

 

regards

 

Ian
