Highways with motorway-like access restrictions.
Restrictions
Used combinations in
|
The motorroad tag is used to describe highways that have motorway-like access restrictions (i.e. cyclists and pedestrians banned) but that are not a motorway. Depending on the country, this may imply various access restrictions and other road properties.
It is not the same as a limited-access road, as access there refers to the right of adjacent property owners to construct driveways. One key used to tag a road with partial control of access but a limited number of intersections is expressway=yes.
Implied tags
France
This tag is not required, just use highway=trunk.
Finland
In Finland, the tag indicates whether a road is a Moottoriliikennetie.
- minspeed=60
- foot=no
- bicycle=no
- horse=no
- parking:lane:both=no_stopping
- (u_turn=no)
- (reversing=no
- No towing with a rope, cable or any other similar - except to the first exit only in case of a breakdown.
Germany, Croatia
In Germany, the tag indicates whether a road is a wikipedia:de:Kraftfahrstraße (§ 18 StVO)
-
minspeed=60(vehicles needs to be constructed to be able to drive faster than 60, actually there is no minimum driving speed) - foot=no (implied by motor_vehicle)
- bicycle=no (implied by motor_vehicle)
- moped=no (implied by minspeed)
- horse=no (implied by motor_vehicle)
- agricultural=no agricultural vehicles are only allowed if they can drive faster than 60...
Italy
In Italy, the tag must be used when one of the following road signs is present:
or 
(strada extraurbana principale)
(strada riservata ai veicoli a motore)
(a superstrada having the same access limits as a strada extraurbana principale)
The access restrictions for an italian motorway apply:
-
minspeed=80(vehicles needs to be constructed to be able to drive faster than 80, actually there is no minimum driving speed) - foot=no (implied by motor_vehicle)
- bicycle=no (implied by motor_vehicle)
- mofa=no (implied by minspeed)
- moped=no (implied by minspeed)
- horse=no (implied by motor_vehicle)
- agricultural=no (implied by minspeed)
- no access to motorcycles having a displacement smaller than 150 cm³
- no access to sidecars having a displacement smaller than 250 cm³
- no access to vehicles having a displacement smaller than 500 cm³
- parking:lane:both=no_stopping
- stopping=no
- reverse=no
Netherlands
In the Netherlands this tag applies to all highway=trunk. [wikipedia]
Spain
In Spain, the tag indicates whether a road is an wikipedia:es:Autovía.
Turkey
Key to be used only where the road sign is present.
How to map
Tag a highway that is a motorroad with motorroad=yes in addition to the highway tag, which will usually be highway=primary or highway=trunk. You may want to specify implied access restrictions explicitly.
Depending on interpretation, highway=trunk may imply motorroad=yes. You can tag a divided highway that's not a motorroad as highway=trunk with motorroad=no.
Rendering
Osmarender
Since 2009-05-12 the osmarender style files include some rules for motorroads:
- motorroad=yes is rendered for highway=trunk, highway=primary, highway=secondary, highway=tertiary using an additional "motorway-blue" casing.
- motorroad=no is rendered only for highway=trunk using an additional "secondary-golden" casing.
- Combinations with * cycleway=track/lane/opposite_track/opposite_lane/yes are also rendered at some zoom levels.
- Combinations with * bicycle=no is only rendered at some zoom levels for motorroad=no at highway=trunk (the difference to motorroad=yes is: agricultural=yes and no minspeed)
