Hello there and thank you for your contributions to OpenStreetMap. In OSM, place classifications are not based on the name, but rather their relative importance and population. See the wiki article on place=city

> Use the place=city tag to identify the largest settlement or settlements within a territory, including national, state and provincial capitals, and other major conurbations.

In Maryland we typically use the town for places between 10 and 50k population.

> As of mid 2019, 63% of place=city have a population=* tag, of which the median value is 130,000, and 95% of place=city have a population=* value over 20,000

Mt Rainer was therefore classified village.

Nice work finding these! I missed them last night on my walk, too dark :D

Agree 100% and thank you for bringing this up. I've started the conversation on the OSM US Slack and will bring it up in the lists, and with those other communities. I'll poke around at some of these other options already in use as well. Perhaps I could join forces by the Minn. folks.

Hey there, sorry this comment slipped through my emails but I wanted to reply. The LTS score is a quantitative measure of the traffic stress a bicycle rider would feel.

I haven't found any osm documentation yet so I've been adding the tag with the hope of proposing a standard on the wiki. I believe it would be a good candidate for mapping since the formula is based on highway characteristics and nothing subjective, (perhaps) unlike the sac_scale or something like that.

In this case, a road separated bicycle path is the lowest possible stress score, zero.

Here's some more info. What do you think?

Hi Marc, thanks for the updates along York Road here. I performed the previous edit (8 years ago) and realize that my use of highway=service was incorrect, according to the wiki. I will make the update to highway=residential per

> Note: This is not a tag for frontage road, sometimes called a service road. That should be tagged depending on what function the frontage road serves.

osm.wiki/Tag:highway%3Dservice

Here is a good guide on all things OSM bicycle infrastructure that you will find useful in your future mapping! https://tordans.github.io/OSM-Bike-Berlin-Tagging-Guide/ (it is for Berlin, DE based on some work in Ottawa CA, but also based on the PeopleForBikes Standard that evolved some years ago)

See osm.org/note/2828304

Thanks, I saw those updates. Another thing you probably know based on local knowledge is what the new S Division St intersection looks like now that cars cannot cross the tracks there at Washington Street. I added the OSM Block tags, which are typically used when there is some sort of obstruction like a rock. Can pedestrians still traverse that area?

These bicycle lanes just need to be added to the street as a lane and this will be good to go.

Looks good here. Be sure to give a reason (just like you did here) when changing roadway classification, as these sort of things can be sensitive due to their subjective nature. Keep up the good work!

This changeset has been reversed by the author in osm.org/changeset/110478409 thus fixing the issue. Thanks!

looks good. I've added bollard to further delineate this. Have a look as an example. These are useful things to add for bike/ped routability

This edit looks generally good. The one feedback I'd have is to make it so that the greenway lanes are added as a tag on the street, rather than a separate way, just like with Lake Street

Is this a regular road that has bike lanes on either side? The way to do that is to add the cycleway=lane tag as an *additional* attribute to the roadway tags. So in this case, you wouldn't want to change the residential tag of the road, just add that there are bicycle lanes. In ID editor, you hit the "add field" area and choose Bike Lanes. Then choose if there is a left, right, or both-sides lane.

One question I have is if this is indeed a bridge and part of the network: osm.org/note/2828393

Thanks again. Alright, this one is updated. I split it up so that the crossings have the right tags and, as a bonus, added it as a cycle route which will enhance how it shows up on sites that use OSM cycle route data: osm.org/relation/13148453

Got it. I will leave the bridge since it will open very soon. Does it have a real name or designation yet?

also, further down the riverwalk, where it goes under division, it looks like the riverwalk is just along the water, and the roadway goes overhead. no tunnel per se, is that right?

Thanks! At the Mill Street intersection, two questions: Is that ped bridge online yet? And, does the riverwalk require going across Main, across Mill, and back across Main (in a big U) or can they cross direct across Mill?

Tell me a little more about this Riverwalk. It is a paved path along the water, right? Like a promenade? And it is signed for bike/ped access?
