[Talk-GB] 'informal' ramps

[Michael Collinson]

I wonder if Gareth has in mind drawing a parallel way for the informal 
ramp. I've occasionally used this in Sweden. Not the most elegant 
solution but does allow things like surface, mtb:scale (which I use for 
physical bicycle accessibility as distinct from legal), wheelchair (lack 
of) accessibility and anything else that you can come up with for 
assisting routing. Topologically "correct" and can track any deviations 
of the ramp from the steps. Your suggestions are still valid and I'll 
use them.  /Mike
