highway=service cannot be selected

[mcliquid]

I am editing a bus route which goes via a highway=service (parking aisle), but I cannot select this way. Are service roads filtered out?

[Zaczero]

The following service roads are excluded:

• driveway
• driveway2
• parking_aisle
• emergency_road

If a parking_aisle road is commonly used by public transport traffic, it should also have an access tag, either psv=designated or bus=designated. Alternatively, you could consider changing the road type from parking aisle to just service.

The reason for this behavior is the wiki documentation:

a subordinated way in a parking lot between rows of parking spaces that vehicles use to drive into and out of the spaces.

It would be great if one could change either the road type or the access tag directly in Relatify. Otherwise one always have to switch to another editor and have to discard the previous changes. Should I open a separate Feature Wish Issue for this?

[Zaczero]

I think such feature would be quite complicated to implement, the way to go about this is to use Open-in-OSM buttons which are already present in Relatify, and then you would refresh the data with some other button (not yet implemented).

+1 and the list should also include 'alley' not considering psv= or bus= at all

I added a rule for service=alley too. I think this issue can be closed now.
