[OSM-talk] Rough Tracks

  I am currently mapping a village where there are a number tracks which 
  whilst they should be tagged tracktype=grade3 are so rough you really 
  wouldn't want to drive down them.  Many wouldn't want to walk down them 
  either.  They are rough enough that I previously hadn't bothered to map 
  them, but recently they have had street names added.

  So, how do I map them in such a way that shows they exist but that won't 
  be used for routing?  I could add the various access tags, but that 
  isn't correct - you are allowed to use them, you just wouldn't want to.

What you're saying doesn't make sense to me.  The tracks on the ground
really are tracktype grade3, but you don't want to route over them?
Then they are tagged correctly and you need to tell the routing engine
to exclude tracktype grade3, or give it a high cost.
