[OSM-talk] Forking ways?

[Adrian Frith]

Hi folks,

I'm mapping a suburb which has quite a lot of streets that "fork"; in
fact I have one street name which looks like:

          |
          |
          |
          +----------+---------
          |          |
          |          |
          |          |
          |          |
----------+----------+---------

The question I have is: do I make all the segments into one way that
forks and isn't topologically a line; or do I make several ways with the
same name, dividing it up into separate non-forking lines?

Thanks,
Adrian Frith
