bench=* is used to indicate whether a feature provides a bench for sitting or resting, most commonly on features that are tagged amenity=shelter, public_transport=platform, or highway=bus_stop. Benches help people with reduced mobility, so tagging bench=yes or bench=no helps with indicating how accessible a feature is. The physical bench itself can be mapped separately mapped with amenity=bench.
Values
bench=yes– A bench exists at the feature. It may or may not be mapped separately asamenity=bench.bench=no– A bench is not present.bench=separate– A bench exists and is mapped separately. This a rare value, possibly because benches are usually not tagged separately at shelters, public transport platforms or and bus stops.
