[OSM-talk] Bridge Tag

[Gregory]

Well I think normally people tag the bridge as layer=1, you can set up your
own presets in JOSM so that tag is automatically added when you click your
bridge preset. (I don't use presets yet, so someone else should probably
explain better).

You do get some complicated bridge patterns which I think would require
different layer levels.
I wonder if 'Spaghetti Junction' (motorway) has been done in Birmingham?...
