Yes, it does recognise designation=public_byway, restricted_byway, byway, byway_open_to_all_traffic, and will render them in red. However (Ben, in response to your earlier question) it doesn't re-render instantly. The tileserver has been very generously provided by, and is managed, Swansea University Computer Society,  and re-renders a tile (I believe) one day after it's requested.

So patience! ;-)
