Hi mappers. Which tag combination should I use for a way that is made only for wheelchair access? The tag wheelchair=designated seems not to be used alone so I am looking for a tag to use with it, perhaps some highway=*?

Thanks in advance.

For pedestrian/bicycle/car routing you will always need a highway tag. This also applies to wheelchairs.

In your case highway=footway should be the most appropriate tag.
