The wiki for this key
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:ramp
says in the description: "Whether a ramp for bicycles, strollers,
wheelchairs or luggage is built into a stairway" The sidebar says it
Requires "highway=steps". By chance I discovered a section of Route 3
with ramp=yes. (Not the on-ramp) I checked all the New England states
with overpass-turbo and no other state uses this tag on state routes or
interstates, whereas Massachusetts uses it on almost every major
highway, probably thousands of times. I'm pretty sure interstates are
quite stair free, though the potholes might count. Is the wiki incorrect?
