See osm.org/changeset/159708327

After reading osm.wiki/Tag:access%253Dprivate, I realized that access=private was not the appropriate tag for the private roads in changesets 159706963, 159707415, and 159707850. While they are privately owned, roads like this typically have easements that allow certain use by others. I have not researched the easements, so I chose to remove the access tag rather than use access=permissive or similar.

Questionable that this route should even exist in OSM. I've ridden parts of it and don't remember seeing any signs for it.

See osm.org/changeset/149966205

This also introduced a couple gaps in the bike route relations involving these streets. I fixed them in osm.org/changeset/150570543

Permissive sounds reasonable to me. The easement is technically only for the "adjoining property owners" (see King County Recording #19990701001281), but if they allow others to walk through then permissive would be more accurate.

The divided median has a cut here to facilitate crossing. There are no signs prohibiting crossing between the east side of 3rd Ave NE and the west side of NE Serpentine Pl, only on the west side of 3rd Ave NE and the east side of NE Serpentine Pl.

I intentionally disconnected KC Metro Routes 892, 891, and 216 in this changeset. Those routes were discontinued, so I removed them in changesets 148575909, 148576018, and 148576287.

I checked the Latah County parcel information, and this portion of the trail/railroad ROW is all owned by Latah County.

Upon further review, I think changesets 144879254 and 144879408 should be reverted.

Your earlier changes where you removed the bicycle=yes tag and Palouse to Cascades Trail relation are perfectly valid. These two changes (144879254/144879408), where you deleted the abandoned railroad and parts of several nearby roads, are not.

In your comments on changeset 144808909, you mentioned that you were concerned about people mapping routes along the abandoned railroad on Strava, Garmin, and similar tools. By removing the highway=track and bicycle=yes tags, removing the cycle route relation, and updating the access tag, you had already achieved this. There was no need to delete the abandoned railroad entirely.

Note that the sign does not limit the restriction to school days. It just says 7am-5pm.

In this changeset, you disconnected South Cove Road from Idaho Road (the southern portion leading to Willard). Was that intentional or a mistake?

The signs don't indicate where one greenway ends and the other begins, so I picked Delridge Way SW as the boundary since that's the road these greenways flank.

I meant Bothell, not Kenmore

I merged the two in osm.org/changeset/142337197. Let me know if that looks better.

I originally mapped it as a separate camp_site because the entrance to the hiker/biker sites is off the day use area rather than the main campground area. Either way is fine by me, though.

The path between the end of 28th Ave S and the I-90 Trail is paved and open to the public. I reverted the changes to that path in osm.org/changeset/140745936

Thanks for the explanation! I updated it to cycleway=track in osm.org/changeset/124870787 (except for the areas where the bollards disappear by intersections).

Thanks for responding. This is a problem with the applications, not with the map data. This situation is documented on the wiki here: osm.wiki/Good_practice#Don't_map_for_the_renderer

You're right that many applications don't distinguish paths with the access=no tag. Here is an example of one such path: osm.org/way/503291111 (more: https://overpass-turbo.eu/s/1jNP). openstreetmap.org and OsmAnd distinguish private paths for some but not all map styles. Komoot does not distinguish private paths. I will file bugs against those projects/map styles.

I will not re-add it, but this path should not have been deleted. It physically exists. The access=no tag can be used to indicate that access to a trail is prohibited.
