Hi Gerd, "add access=no" is a very dangerous option. In my style, I added a rule for removing such ways completely. And it failed terribly - today, there may be public roads on previous railways. See also my post in the forum at https://forum.openstreetmap.org/viewtopic.php?id=66451 Kind regards, Bernhard Am 18.01.2020 um 19:51 schrieb Gerd Petermann:
Hi all,
the default style has this rule: # following really should be removed, but see: http://www.mkgmap.org.uk/pipermail/mkgmap-dev/2016q3/025104.html railway«andoned [0x0a road_class=0 road_speed=1 resolution 22]
I agree with Ticker that it is not a good idea to make such a way routable. I would accept this when it has also a tag like bicycle=s. I found a few ways like this, e.g. https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/122268824 (I wonder why nobody added a highway tag since 2011) BUT we should not assume access=s for a railway«andoned. So, what about this: railway«andoned {add access=no} [0x0a road_class=0 road_speed=1 resolution 22]
