>>A simple example for a tunnel (here subway) on a bridge would be this:

>>what I wrote was that - according to some technical definitions - a tunnel must not have something above it, it may be sufficient that it is closed and long enough. I am not sure if we share these definitions in OSM.
>>According to the current wiki, "a tunnel is an underground passage for a road or similar." and also: " tunnel =* is used for roads, railway line, canals etc that run underground (in  tunnel ). "  This doesn't appear to be exhaustive / complete, tunnels could also run underwater, above ground and potentially in the future even in space, no?
>>Many current underwater tunnels are also "underground", as they are often running in a man made structure (embankment like) on the ground or below the water body/river in the ground
