This tag allows to specify a surface of just cycleway. It is useful for highway=*
tagged with cycleway=*
where just surface=*
is not sufficient. It is also useful for merged footway with cycleway with different surfaces tagged as one way - for example:
highway=path
segregated=yes
foot=designated
bicycle=designated
surface=paved
cycleway:surface=asphalt
footway:surface=paving_stones
On roads with multiple cycleways, the variants cycleway:left:surface=*
, cycleway:right:surface=*
, and cycleway:both:surface=*
are often useful.
This tagging is a special case of a more general rule for defining attributes of cycleways – see Key:cycleway#Supplementary details.
Examples

highway=footway
and highway=cycleway
, each with its own surface=*
or as one way that requires cycleway:surface=asphalt
for specifying surface
