| 28 | | `area:highway=service` without `living_street=yes` for `highway=service` with `living_street=yes` seems simply confusing. A living street is 100% connected with a specific sign with very different traffic rules, but arguably sometimes it is equivalent to a residential (`highway=living_street`) and sometimes to service. I can imagine that sometimes in practice one has to transit along a whole living street as part of an ordinal travel (something like `highway=tertiary`). Anyway I assume that, because the classification of roads on OSM is based on their practical use, not on their official status, but the official status of being a living street is always important in practice, some roads are e.g. both service roads and living streets, so tagging `area:highway=service` with `living_street=yes` is necessary to show what an area is. (Unless we assume that a living street must always be tagged `highway=living_street`. Then `living_street=yes` is wrong with both `area:highway=*` and with `highway=*`.) |
