Sorry, but a bench shouldn't be mapped as a "highway". Think about bench=yes combined with https://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/keys/hitchhiking =* --Pyram (talk) 18:50, 27 April 2025 (UTC)
> Initially this sounds like a concern that should have been raised during the proposal process. To explain the rational here again. We are looking at the main purpose, which is transportation. It is just kind that someone set up a bench especially as the waiting time for a ride is unpredictable. In this spirit the same tagging scheme as for highway=bus_stop is used.
