[Talk-ca] weeklyOSM #490 2019-12-03-2019-12-09

Thanks for the summary, weeklyteam!

The tagging proposal
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/park_drive might
be of interest to Canadian mappers. It is intended to cover carpool
lots. At least in Ontario, many MTO carpool lots are tagged with
park_ride= (park & ride) and although many are now served by GO or
local transit agencies, some are not - so a second tag for "park &
drive" or "carpool" could improve accuracy. Please weigh in on
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Talk:Proposed_features/park_drive
if you have thoughts.

There is apparently a carpool= key, but almost entirely used in
France. Comments from Québec on if carpool lots are tagged in Québec
and how you'd like them to be tagged better would also be a great
addition.

Thanks,
--Jarek
