[OSM-talk-be] Tagging proposal for cycling highways (Fietssnelwegen)

[Lionel Giard]

To answer Joost question about relevance in other regions : yes it is
relevant. Wallonia recently started to plan and implement these "cycle
highway" to reach Brussels from multiple different locations (with
protected cycleway along motorway, national road or railway). They want to
connect and continue some of the existing cycle highway in Flanders (like
the F20 near Halle and go further to Tubize...).
That would definitely be a belgian thing, and not only flanders. ^_^
