Talk:Tag:area:highway=footway

Possible routing issues

There is a paragraph saying "Combination of highway=footway + area=yes is incorrect, because it causes routing services to break down." but won't routers probably use the area border to route? (basically ignoring area=yes and using it as a closed footway); they won't create a route across the area, but it really won't break the routing from what I see. --naoliv (talk) 20:32, 21 June 2018 (UTC)

Rendering issues

Not rendered without highway=footway + area=yes, was checking Berlin an Warsaw as references.
