Contruction is still in progress for landscaping. All traffic movements are now open. It was completed in late March 2016 when this changeset went live. http://gatewaywa.com.au/news/latest-news/filter&archive=true?start=30

Hi there, although this changeset is old, a note on using highway=give_way and highway=stop tags. These generally should only be applied to nodes of traversable ways (I.e a node on a highway=residential) just prior to the intersection node, and not to isolated nodes as it thus serves no practical purpose if applied to isolated nodes.

(Sorry for so many comments but you should consult the wiki for further information, it may be found at: osm.wiki/Tag:barrier%3Dgate) Thanks :)

(editors like JOSM mark such features as validation errors)

A further note that using barrier=gate on ways is discouraged, and using it on nodes is strongly preferred

Hello, thank you for your edit.
Please ensure when you apply tags like barrier=gate you also apply a barrier=gate node at the centre as barrier=gate is often a useless tag when applied to a way.

Also note the map scale as your barrier=gate was grossly oversized (approx 40m wide before update)

Thanks :)

Hi Robbie, this is a friendly note on editing in OpenStreetMap.
This edit you completed three months ago left redundant tags and deleted important ways(!) As a result you made this intersection not able to be navigable. Only now three months later am I correcting this edit (by chance) some edits don't get corrected or stay in an errorsome state for years - that is for three months no one could use this intersection if they used a navigation app. Please be very careful of your edits and their practical implications. Be sure not to delete important roads or tags and make edits without really knowing what you are doing, or rushing through an edit. Thank you :) Kind Regards, Aaron

Hello :) Just a friendly note that best practice for highway=construction tagging is to not overwrite the prexisting value, and instead have highway=construction and construction=* where the construction tag is the highway value.

Changeset Redacted
Abusive/Spam Changeset

Changeset partially reverted. Incorrect road classification. Check classification before edit.

Hi epicsauce :)
There appears to be a link at
http://gatewaywa.com.au/assets/Publications/Factsheets/FACTSHEET-4-Tonkin-Dunreath.pdf
In the visualisation it appears to be covered by a red material. In aerial photographs this appears to be under construction. But it probably wouldn't be used by regular traffic, after construction it may be mapped as a service road or something similar. Good find :)

Changeset reverted

Further to this to be-aware of the correct tagging (i.e when to use motorway, and when instead to use motorway_link), and when to merge road ways, and road classes. Nonetheless your edit is very much appreciated and contributes to the a great map

Hi epicsauce,

Thanks for your edit :)

When editing be mindful of the tags on the object, in particular, to correct any fixme=* tags and in this case to remove any redundant tags, notably highway=construction before changing the road (highway=* tag). Unless someone reviews the road, which quite often may not be for months or years, that redundant tag will remain and cause issues with end-users, such as navigation apps, which may not allow routing over a highway=construction road way.

Thanks :) :)

(Sorry - correction the key disused:*=* for highway or similar features with the exclusion of railways.)

Hi there :)
The key disused:*=* is discouraged, not rendered in Mapnik, nor supported widely.
Rather the key access=* should be applied, the feature deleted, or highway class (highway=*) altered (or a combination of these).

Thanks for editing, your contributions in Perth are great :)

Hi pnorman :)

I appreciate your comment and was wanting to test the rendering of residential_link and link road capping. This changeset has been redacted @ osm.org/changeset/28581542

I tried having a look at the transport operators website but their maps are crude. The trouble is I don't know if the bus is one way or if it terminates or is a loop etc.
