Using an access key

I do not like the idea to use Access keys for other purposes.
Regarding bus=minibus and bus=share_taxi we now have a mix of different cases as this tag refers to the type of vehicle while bus=school refer to the type of service. I'd rather prefer to use more distinct keys like service:designation=school and service:vehicle=minibus. Though, service=* might not be the best key but at least it is already used with trains. --Skyper (talk) 14:36, 30 March 2023 (UTC)Reply

network=* seems like a better parent tag, but network:type=* is already taken. What about a new network:category=*? --Fernando Trebien (talk) 17:53, 5 March 2026 (UTC)Reply
That's still vague. It's not about network=* , as the same network=* can have bus or minibus routes.
One option is bus_vehicle=* following taxi_vehicle=* , but better to be more specific eg bus*size=* , as there can be other attributes (eg luxurious "coach" class seating)
Indeed taxi_vehicle=* can consider a taxi*size=* for larger motorcar (SUV, MPV, vans)

Using capacity=*

How about using capacity=* instead or at least as additional option? --Skyper (talk) 14:42, 30 March 2023 (UTC)Reply
