cyclestreet=yes
has 9200 uses, most of them in Belgium (5200) and the Netherlands (2400).
Tag overlaps in use with bicycle_road=yes
, which has 14k uses.
Both tags compete with normal access restrictions tagging. See also #214.

Though related, they are conceptually different: bicycle_road has implicitvehicle=no, bicycle=designated
while cyclestreet's implied restriction would explicit allow motor vehicles.
To me it sounds more like a variant of highway=living_street
, but focusing on bicycles instead of pedestrians.
Expected behavior
Streets with
cyclestreet=yes
should be rendered differently to normal streets. Cycle streets are designated bicycle ways where driving a car is also allowed, but accommodating to cyclists.With current rendering designated bicycle ways seemingly end in the middle of the street in cases where a cycleway merges to a cycle street (see screenshot below). I know there are specialized bicycle map styles like cyclosm, but I think rendering cyclestreets differently would be also useful to other road users, like drivers.
A light blue background color to highways tagged as a cyclestreet would be an intuitive indicator of a designated bicycle way.
Actual behavior
Highways with cyclestreet tag are rendered with the same style as other highways.
