#Mini motorways roundabout vs traffic light drivers#
On large roundabouts, this helps navigation by more explicitly saying to drivers when to place themselves on the external lane to exit the roundabout. You can add any number of nodes you need to create correct connections with connected streets, notably when there are traffic islands separating the directions, and get the correct shap. Now the default is 18 points and there is no documented way to change that. T99 ( talk) 19:17, 29 December 2013 (UTC) - BTW, JOSM did add this capability and it was useful while it lasted, but then it disappeared. I have painstakingly (by following, ungluing and rotating) created a 16-pointer which I keep copying and pasting around. It would be nice if JOSM could create a circle with 12, 16, 24, 32 or 48 evenly spaced points.
Compare with how you draw a twisty road section. In my opinion roundabouts should have as many nodes that it takes to give it a round shape. It might make sense to add a good hint on how many points are sensible to use (i have seen rounabouts with 30+ points) Flohoff 12:55, (UTC) In the map a typical roundabout has 8 or more points be drawn. The example shows some roundabouts and uses "just" 4 points. Strong support for this conclusion!- JeffH 21:19, 17 December 2010 (UTC) Junction NamesĪ junction does not necessarily have a roundabout and can still have a specific name independent of the road names.įor the moemnt I've just put a 'name' tag on the junction. I guess, I was tempted to tag for the renderer again.d'oh! Zeptomoon 12:05, 2 September 2010 (BST) If the roundabout is named in such a manner, than name=* is on its place. (Intersection of Prinsens Gate and Kongens Gate. For example Prinsenkrysset in Trondheim, Norway. The intersection itself might be named, independently and differently from the roads crossing it. Consequently it should not carry the name of any road (bigger or smaller). Zeptomoon 18:07, 1 September 2010 (BST)Īs I understood it, the roundabout is a junction and therefore, does not belong to any of the intersecting roads. I believe they should have the same name as the bigger road. =Knossou Avenue=(o)=Knossou Avenue=(o)=Knossou. Is there any standard / common practice on naming roundabouts in the middle of a longer road? Add the 'name' tag to the roundabout with the name in it. Is there any facility to add a name to a roundabout - the main roundabouts here in Basingstoke, UK are named.Ĭertainly. +1 Gorm 02:06, 20 December 2009 (UTC) Roundabout Names Would not the key 'junction' be more appropriate than 'highway' for mini-roundabouts since this tag is only applied at the intersection of two or more ways? Also it would fit in better with junction=roundabout.
