Wouldn't it be cleaner to map this as tags of the road itself?

22024-02-10 16:20akadouri I updated the area to parking=street_side & the way to parking:left=separate.

I would be fine removing the area and tagging the road with parking:left=street_side. I'm not familiar with which is more common.

A method of adding to street VS area may work better in one area than another. It can get pretty abstract when counting spaces, handicap, and maximum allowed parking times left / right and as a result the street could be chopped into many pieces along a block

Could use https://zlant.github.io/parking-lanes/ to make parking tagging easier.

"traffic_calming=island – A traffic island that is not built as a refuge at pedestrian crossings, but to calm traffic." 🤔

22022-11-23 02:03akadouri Yeah I go back and forth on it, technically this calms traffic and is also used by pedestrians.

landuse=traffic has been abandoned.

crossing:island=yes seems to be for nodes.

area:highway=traffic_island is another option.

"crossing=marked" is for crosswalks with stop sign. crosswalks with traffic lights are "crossing=traffic_signals"

I'd imagine you could list both with ";", but wouldn't "traffic_signal" imply that it's marked? Other than temporary after repaving, are there any traffic light crosswalks without stripes?

62022-03-28 21:37akadouri I'm not sure, I guess it could have been painted since the last re-pavement. It doesn't seem like it's common enough around here to worry about having to tag both cases.

Hi akadouri, thanks for adding this. I rode the ferry this afternoon and recorded it. You can see the trace at https://ridewithgps.com/trips/80747355. You're a little too far north on the landing spot at the Ferry Point Park end of the route.
