Please don't add fiction like foot=use_sidepath to roads in the UK. Pedestrians use highways by absolute right unless explicitly forbidden (requiring a traffic order and a sign), therefore adding foot=no without a sign is also wrong.

If you read the wiki for that tag, you will note that it states: "This tag should only be applied in countries that have compulsory footways."
osm.wiki/Tag:foot%3Duse_sidepath

If you're adding separate sidewalks, please also set sidewalk:$side=separate on the parent street. That would be far more useful than adding non-existent access restrictions.

Vandalising OSM by adding fictitious weight restrictions isn't "improving [the] street network for routing".

Welcome to OpenStreetMap.

Thanks for adding this, although you'll need to add some other tags for the POI you added for it to be useful to data consumers. Please take a look at the following wiki page for some suggestions:
osm.wiki/Tag:healthcare%3Dphysiotherapist

If you would like any help, please feel free to ask.

Please don't do this. TomTom are perfectly capable of smoothing sharp edges any way they wish when they render map data.

(Review requested)

Welcome to OpenStreetMap and thanks for contributing.

Where you have the individual pitches of Watford (Cassiobury) Croquet Club, these don't really need name=* tags, as they're enclosed by another polygon representing the whole club,
osm.org/way/1073959280

The enclosing polygon should was incorrectly tagged by another mapper as leisure=pitch and should actually be leisure=sports_centre + club=sport

See osm.wiki/Tag:leisure%3Dsports_centre

This is only a minor issue and there isn't anything in your edit which would be likely to cause problems for data consumers.

Adding unsigned weight limits without a source isn't an "improvement".

I see that you have added two sidewalk rings around St Stephen's Road/Athelstane Grove/Selwyn Road/Antill Road and St Stephen's Road/Antill Road/Coborn Road/Tredegar Road. Apart from the short section between the zebra crossing N of the junction of St Stephen's Road and Tredegar Road and the crossing of Antill Road at its junction with St Stephen's Road, these are not connected to anything else via crossings and are at best utterly useless for pedestrian routing. Unless you intend to connect these decorative sidewalks at other crossings, the useless parts should be removed. MapRoulette challenges are all very well, but people who actually live in London prefer working pedestrian navigation over tickbox exercises.

I'm getting very tired of removing your fictitious "improvements".

Do you have any evidence that horses are legally prohibited in the Rotherhithe Tunnel? Your changeset does not provide a source and I cannot see a TSRGD diagram 622.6 sign (Ridden or accompanied horses prohibited) at either end on Bing's street side imagery.

How can a public bridleway have horse=private + bicycle=private? If your access tagging is correct, it's a footpath, not a bridleway.

Access tags in OSM reflect real and verifiable legal restrictions, not subjective opinions. Already reverted by another user.

Could you explain why you think that motor_vehicle=permissive applies to the A101 Rotherhithe Tunnel? As far as I can tell, it's a highway maintainable at public expense operated by TfL, which would be an implicit motor_vehicle=yes

Thanks.

If you want to tag "designated [motor] vehicles are permitted to use this road", it's motor_vehicle=private

The meaning of motor_vehicle=designated is "ALL motor vehicles use this road as a legal right".

168926440 about 1 month ago

Thanks for adding these, but please note that the access tags should be:
vehicle=private + bus=yes

The psv=yes tag is unnecessary abd almost certainly incorrect, as PSV is not an exact synonym for bus/bus+taxi in the UK. While signs and traffic orders restricting or prohibiting PSV access exist, tis is not the case for explicit permission.

The motor_vehicle=designated tag is wrong. The value "designated" does not mean "for designated vehicles only", but "designated for use by ALL motor vehicles as a legal right". The former situation is described by the "private" access value.

Where there is a bus bay which is not physically separated from the main carriageway, the carriageway can be split and the tag bus_bay=left|right added to the appropriate section.
