Thornbury High Street was closed to motor vehicles last year, except
residents and blue badge holder (there's disabled parking in the closed
bit). At the time another local mapper changed it to highway=pedestrian,
which seems reasonable. I've just added bicycles=yes based on the signs
that allowed me to ride along it today, and access:disabled=destination
(it could arguably be =yes; the signs aren't explicit).
But how do I add the residents' access?
The wiki suggests "vehicle=private" for the residents' case, implying
there's no clearer tag - but that would seem to imply a private road,
which it isn't:
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:access#Road_where_residents.2C_pedestrians_and_cyclists_are_allowed.
I think the whole thing is under an experimental traffic order at the
moment, but the council are looking to make it permanent, even
post-COVID (and it seems to work)
