Comment from GerdP
please help me to understand:
why do you connect nodes with
highway=traffic_signals as with
way 296332286 ?
You used amenity=traffic_signals,
now (after a mass edit) they are all
highway=traffic_signals, which looks
completely nonsense. -
Comment from jpennycook
Hello.
Amenity=traffic_signals was listed in a wiki article for relating a group of traffic lights, individually tagged with highway=traffic_signals. I no longer use the relationship and only tag individual lights with the highway tag. -
Comment from GerdP
okay, I think I understand now. The idea
was to show that those traffic signals were
controlled by one logic/computer/whatever.
Do you think that the mass edit which changed them all to highway=traffic_signals
should be reverted or should I simply remove those ways?
I stumbled over them because a lot turned out to be highway=track, probably
an auto-completion problem in JOSM. -
Comment from jpennycook
I stopped using the relationship because of the mass edit - the result made no sense to me either. Yes - the intention was to show a set of traffic lights controlled as a unit.
I tend to stay out of debates, but my opinion is that a relationship is useful, as a route planner should only take one traffic light of a unit into account, but tagging the relationship with highway=traffic_signals, ie the same as the nodes, is confusing or misleading. -
Comment from GerdP
okay, so I think the best is to remove these
wrong highways and review the tagging of the nodes with the traffic_signals tag.
See also http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/DE:Tag:highway%3Dtraffic_signals
which shows solutions for the router problem. -

For info, I've stuck a link to here on https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/25083701 so that the person who did the mechanical edit is aware of the effects.
Cheers, Andy -
Comment from GerdP
thanks, I did not yet change more of them
as it is really difficult to understand the mapping of traffic_signals without local knowledge.
