How To Map

On a way way representing a street with overhead trolley wires, add the tag trolley_wire=yes.

trolley_wire:forward=yes and trolley_wire:backward=yes can be used on two way streets that have trolley wires only on one side.

On one way streets with trolleybuses that drive against the traffic direction trolley_wire:backward=yes can be used.

Redundancy with trolleybus=yes

trolley_wire=yes may be redundant with trolleybus=yes, especially on road ways. When trolley_wire=yes is applied, trolleybus=yes can be implied most of the times.
