[OSM-talk-be] Do you Tag those as cycleway?

Hello,

It may be a good idea to freshen up the pages on the wiki to remove all confusion about this.
Perhaps we could summarize all the discussions as such.


1) If a street is one-way for motor traffic but open to cyclists in both direction, we use this:

	oneway=yes
	oneway:bicycle=no

(This scheme is better than the legacy cycleway=opposite tag, because it also allows to add oneway:moped_P=no if we have the new M11 roadsign allowing speed pedelecs too.)



2) A properly-marked lane (http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/File:Cycleway_lane1_be.jpg), i.e. stripped lines
In Belgian traffic rules, this is the same as a track (fietspad/piste cyclable) and gives right-of-way to cyclists

	cycleway=lane

	(if cyclists can use the street in both directions, use cycleway:left
	or cycleway:right if the situation is not the same on both sides)



3) Just logos (http://redac.cuk.ch/archives_v3/5237/bandecyclablesuggeree.png) or color, but without the stripped lines
This is the example eMerzh brought up to start the discussion.
This situation does not do anything with regard to traffic rules, but is useful for cycling applications because it feels a little safer than a street with nothing.

	cycleway=shared_lane
 



What do you think?
Yves
