Canceled

This proposal is canceled in favor of the proposal for turning_point

Proposal

I propose a new value for the key "highway" to represent a point where busses can turn by pushing back. This is for situations where there is no turning circle and no turning loop.

Rationale

The bus turning point is usually not a destination in itself, but gives usefull information for bus drivers that it is possible to turn the bus there with pushing back if there is no turning circle. I think there are at least many thousand bus turning pionts on the world, but there may be more. There is a similar tag for waterways [[1]]

Examples

Tagging

highway=bus_turning_point

Additional Tagging

Add maxlength=* if there is a known length restriction for turning vehicles.

Applies to

All Bus Turning Points where pushing back is neccesary

Rendering

maybe no
