Is there really a bird hide here?

Maybe, maybe not. I don't remember back a year, maybe I made a bad decision.

OS's classification looks odd. If there's current official documentation or physical signage stating what road class or number this is then I'd side with that.

Shouldn't the tagging be amended then, rather than having painted turning lanes mapped as separate ways? According to the wiki to map a turning lane as a *_link, it should be "physically separated by an obstruction."

Is there really a legal/signed restriction against pedestrians here?

Yeah I 100% agree, it's problematic.

I can understand why bus guideway tagging was established first, as they're definitely less of a normal road, however the fact they've been prioritised as far as rendering with highway=busway still on the backburner is questionable. The issue on GitHub has been open since October 2020, nearly three years ago, as you may have seen.

It's happened numerous times that non-guided busways have been tagged as bus guideways too. I'm not sure if this still happens but it was a bigger issue before highway=busway was recognised in iD editor.

I don't really have much else to add and in fairness I'm not familiar with the team that works on OSM Carto.

Hi, can you explain the deletion of this fence? It appears to exist in imagery. Has it been removed recently?

Hi,

It doesn't seem like you fixed the bridge area here but deleted it instead. Could you not have preserved it and altered its shape to be more accurate?

The crux of it for me was that there are no right turns possible throughout the stretch. It doesn't have abutters and has numerous flyover bridges.

Perhaps motorroad=no would be a suitable additional tag, and/or additional access tags.

Having read the wiki (osm.wiki/Key:expressway) I believe it meets the necessary criteria.

Sorry I missed that somehow. Good spot and good fix :)

Good job and good responsiveness - well done.

If you look at this and the similar streets in satellite imagery you can see faintly what looks like bollards, which I'll add now.

In this changeset I also reverted the motorway extent back to merge/diverge with tagging and signage to reflect true motorway status change

Hi,

Here you've changed a street which is accessible only to pedestrians as a service road. Why?

It's more accurate to map roads where they are physically divided, especially if there are features such as advanced stop lines, which you appear to have deleted.

Hi,

highway=trunk is used to represent a primary or trunk route (with green road signs). I don't believe this section of the A174 is signed in green, unlike the route to the east - can you provide any evidence?

If you want to discourage pedestrian routing, you could tag sidewalk=no, or foot=no if there's a signed and lawful pedestrian restriction.

Hi. Can you explain the choice to change the bus stop name=* tags from their real life signed names to the names in naptan's database?

Hi.

The floor is paved in the same way as a bus stop. There may not be a flag but I don't see any visible reason why this wouldn't be used as a bus stop. What made you delete it?

I've noticed you've added Post Office as a brand to many post boxes. Just to let you know, in the UK post boxes are actually operated by Royal Mail, not the Post Office. I believe they were made separate companies as part of Margaret Thatcher's privatisation.

I just checked and OS OpenMap disagrees and colours it in red rather than green. However if I recall correctly it is suggested that OSM prefers on-the-ground reality over external sources.

Awesome, I can tell you're making a serious effort, and I hope you know it's appreciated!

Hey, just so you're aware, buildings require a building=* tag of some sort. I saw this and remembered that I've previously added building tags to some of the buildings you added. Conversely, non-building areas should not have a building tag. Unfortunately iD editor doesn't make this as clear as it should be.

Cheers :)
