Progress

Hmm - it's been quite a while since I last wrote a diary entry. Things have moved on. The city centre (of Swansea) is done as far as I can tell. I've updated more of the "metro" bus lanes as they appear. I've had reason to divert slightly around the Mayhill area of town and have *finally* mapped it, despite the city council's best efforts to block all the through-routes with barricades.

OSM beats all the other maps that I've compared with on correctness of street-connectivity in that area now. However, I'd appreciate efforts by people who live a bit closer to nail down more of the street names. There are a lot of missing name-signs on the streets of Mayhill.

Well, I've just about completed these twin villages, except for a few footpaths to be filled in as the winter draws on and the tree cover goes down (can't get a decent GPS signal under them yet).

Having problems deciding when to call a road "residential" and when to switch to "tertiary". Not helped by the map rendering the two types quite differently which makes the resulting roads rather ugly.
