How to know if the street is oneway or not

0

Hi! I am using overpass turbo to extract data from OpenStreetMap. I export the data in Json format and in the data I can find information about the speed at the road for an example. But I also want to know if the road is a oneway road or not. How can I write the code to tell me if it is a oneway or not? This is my code for residential roads now.

  <query type="way" into="data">
    <bbox-query {{bbox}}/>
    <has-kv k="highway" v="residential"/>
  </query>

What do I need to add? Sincerely, Gustav

You do not have to adapt your query if you want all residential roads. The reply will also contain oneway streets. Those streets will have the extra tag oneway=yes or oneway=-1. The latter means that the oneway is in the opposite direction of the drawing of the way.

If you only want oneway streets, you have to add

<has-kv k="oneway" regv="yes|-1"/>
