OpenStreetMap
Some shiny new tarmac at the hospital, with solar powered little lights along the edge. Would be good if they hadn't put cycle barriers in at the ends at the bottom of steep (25 degree) slopes. Totally useless as well.
There is a problem with the tagging. incline-steep is *not* a highway. It is a separate property of a highway.

The tag highway=incline_steep or highway=incline is intended to be used on nodes, not on the way (which should have the usual highway=path tag etc).
Though its not very useful on nodes, as it doesn't indicate the direction of the incline. So its now discouraged / deprecated.
Its better to tag the way with incline=up or incline=down, or incline=10% etc.

OK, that makes more sense.
OSM really, really needs a proper ontological model for tags.
