Example	Description	Tagging
	Here, a street is a designated bike route. (You can't see it very well, but the sign says “BIKE ROUTE” with an arrow pointing upwards.)	`highway=residential` `bicycle=designated` `surface=asphalt` `smoothness=good` `usability=thin_wheels`
	The crossing street does not allow trucks (Heavy goods vehicles)	Cross-street: `highway=tertiary` `hgv=no` `lanes=2` `surface=asphalt` `smoothness=excellent` `usability=thin_rollers` Through street: `highway=primary` `highway:physical=multi_lane` `lanes=4` `surface=concrete` `smoothness=good` `usability=thin_wheels`
	This is a 5-lane road, with a center “suicide lane”, where cars can be going in both directions while preparing to turn.	`highway=primary` `highway:physical=multi_lane` `lanes=5` or `lanes=4` (depending on whether one is including turn lanes in the lane count) `surface=concrete` `smoothness=good` `usability=thin_wheels`
	A gravel path enters the forest. Local knowledge indicates that it is a hiking and biking trail.	`highway=path` `surface=gravel` `bicycle=designated` `foot=designated` `smoothness=bad` `usability=wheels`
	3m wide gravel path. Local knowledge [1] indicates that this is a shared-use path (“It is open to bicyclists, hikers, joggers and horseback riders in the spring, summer and fall and to snowmobilers, skiers and dog sledders during the winter...No ATV’s are allowed on the trail.”)	`highway=path` `width=3m` `surface=gravel` `usability=wheels` `smoothness=bad`
	2.5m wide asphalt concrete path. It is signed “No motor vehicles,” and local knowledge [2] indicates that it is a shared use path (“...is a hiking and biking trail...”).	`highway=path` `width=2.5m` `surface=asphalt` `usability=wheels` `smoothness=bad`
