I have added your business here: osm.org/node/12810599916

My mistake. Looking into this further and it appears this is not vandalism, but a mistake. I will contact the original editor.

Thank you

hello, I am wondering what the purpose of changing the intersection to add this piece of road is? osm.org/way/1381308510
This isn't a common way of mapping intersections in the Vancouver area. Is there a benefit? A negative I see is that it doesn't reflect the intersection as simply - multiple nodes where only a single node is needed.

Thanks,
Joel

Thank you for the update and welcome to OpenStreetMap. I added a few additional details to match the new business here. Let me know if you have any questions about contributing to this project!

Thanks! And thanks for cleaning up the secondary tags, too. I didn't realise those were half bike parking half motorcycle parking.

Hi grrla,
How did you determine this was incorrectly tagged? It looks like motorcycle parking to me.

Thank you! TIL the term smartshop. I had wondered what to tag these.

Hi eerib, thanks for adding this. I added an additional tag "access:2025-10-31-=yes" to indicate when it is planned to reopen. I considered instead using "access:2025-04-01-2025-10-31=no" but I doubt any data consumers would process this and it looks super confusing. Hopefully we remember to retag this as open once that time comes around.

Hi QuigleyJones,
I have made the same mistake, which is how I learned this: short service roads for buses like this are not busways. See the wiki: osm.wiki/Tag:highway%3Dbusway#What_is_not_a_busway

Thanks,
Joel

Hello,
Welcome to OpenStreetMap.

Please check for the most recent aerial imagery before adding and deleting features. You have mistakenly added and removed several outdated features so I will be reverting this changeset.

Thanks,
Joel

Thanks, I should have given more context right away. I have been adding a lot of details for (wheelchair) accessibility and connecting bus stops to the sidewalks is an important part of this. On the ground, many bus stops are not accessible from sidewalks (maybe they are on gravel or grass, or directly on the road). If all bus stops are mapped with their connectivity to the sidewalk, those that are disconnected from the sidewalk are more obvious in their limited accessibility. I have also been adding a description that describes the accessibility (which might be redundant). Maybe we could propose a new tag that describes this instead but I think mapping the stops as either connected or disconnected to the sidewalk is the best way. In some cases I have added a little 'pigtail' path between the sidewalk and bus stop if the stop is not directly in the middle of the sidewalk.

Some examples:
osm.org/node/6789689735
osm.org/node/5833868302
osm.org/node/12484734231

Hello,
Is there a reason to separate the bus stop node from the sidewalk? I have been working to connect these all over the city.

Example:
osm.org/edit?node=12682450949

Thanks,

Thank you, I couldn't find a good tag to use. This is much better.

Or if there is a sign that specifically designates the use of bus, psv, bike, whatever, we could set the value to "=designated"

Hello,
It looks like the access tags may be slightly different than you intended. The "motor_vehicle" key means regular cars/drivers. To indicate that public service vehicles and busses are permitted we would add "psv=yes", "bus=yes", but leave "motor_vehicle=no". Does this match what you intended?
Thanks,
Joel

Hi meisoof, I have begun working to fix the errors you introduced in this changeset.

Thanks for adding your business! I made a minor change to add the business website.

Thank you! Great information.

And thanks for adding this to the map.

I'm interested - any info about this narrow gauge rail installed here? I'm interested why this was installed vs the standard gauge.

Thanks, Joel
