Spent the last week adding postboxes and their references / collection times for the WV3/WV4 area into OSM. These are being picked up by http://dracos.co.uk/made/locating-postboxes/

Unfortunately, the times the dracos site has listed are out of date, so I’m manually checking each post box. That also guarantees the reference code is correct!

This area of Wolverhampton is covered with footpaths - some of them named. Today I used GPS mapping to trace a chunk of them (and they way they criss cross, I’m sure any locals watching thought I was somewhat mad).

As the main purpose of this to me is an aid to walking routes, I’ve left out some paths that are just there to cut off a corner, and in most cases joined the end of a walkway to the road it leads from. However, I’ve included some paths that run parallel to the road where there are many such junctions.

There’s a bizarre cycle route running across the ring road and partway down Great Brickkiln Street. It actually interrupts itself several times, but I drew it as continuous otherwise it’d be a bit pointless. It was mainly so I could add the pedestrian crossing to allow walks to be routed across.

I tried using highway=crossing, but this didn’t allow the route to be used in some route planners. So, I changed it to footway and added nodes for crossings - this matches the other crossings on the ringroad anyway.
