+/- highway=residential
Road in a residential area
Used combinations in
Approved |
This tag is used for roads accessing or around residential areas but which are not a classified or unclassified highway.
This is a useful guideline if you are not sure whether to use "residential" or "unclassified" for streets in towns:
- residential - street or road generally used only by people that live on that road or roads that branch off it.
- unclassified - a road that has no administrative classification ref=*. Unclassified roads typically form the lowest form of the interconnecting grid network.
See also:
- highway=living_street - a street where pedestrians have priority over cars, children can play on the street, maximum speed is low.
How to map
To map a residential way nothing else than a simple way is required. Add the highway=residential tag to it and a name=* if appropriate.
