80345825 over 5 years ago

I have inserted a very short section of highway=cycleway between the two highway=residential sections. Hopefully this will work, although it may take a week or longer for the data used by routing software to be updated.

80345825 over 5 years ago

While the barrier=bollard node should prevent vehicles being routed that way, it obviously does not work in Navmii. That may be worth reporting to them as a bug, although that doesn't immediately solve your problem.

It is hard to tell from the available imagery, but is the location of the bollard effectively a short section of cycleway linking the residential streets Goldcrest Way and Starlings Drive (and does it have a different surface, dropped kerbs, or any other different physical properties)?

Is this the bollard to the south-east of the junction with Chaffinch Close, already mapped (in 2009) as osm.org/node/440900134

Unfortunately, if you remove the main tag from an object (in this case, highway=* from roads), it disappears from the map for all practical purposes.

Please take a look at the wiki page for the highway tag here:
osm.wiki/Key:highway

This will also have an adverse impact on routing software, so I have fully reverted the changeset in osm.org/changeset/80570685

Might it be worth adding
brand:wikidata=Q807961
brand:wikipedia=en:Santander Cycles
as well?

Some of the infrastructure may now be complete around the junction of Sumner Road with Commercial Way, as LB Southwark have introduced traffic orders effective from 2020-02-03.

See note #2077953 and
https://www.thegazette.co.uk/notice/3482025

I will try to get there some time this week and take some Mapillary imagery along C35.

Hi, Welcome to OpenStreetMap. Is the building at the western end of Six Hills Way no longer a Premier Inn, or not a hotel at all? Thanks.

Welcome to OpenStreetMap and thanks for updating the map around Barking Riverside. I no longer work around there, so it's good to see the area getting a bit more attention.

Footway/sidewalk ways now connected at crossings, see osm.org/changeset/79658072

I've temporarily added foot=permissive to Elstree Hill as it is part of TfL's Green Chain Walk, hopefully this will repair pedestrian routing until evidence for access=private can be determined by a survey.

I took a walk along nearby Hillbrow Road this afternoon, which was made "private" in osm.org/changeset/77948524 by Don Dapper. There is no evidence whatsoever at street level that Hillbrow Road is private and I would be unsurprised if Elstree Road etc. were verifiably private. I'll take a look and some photographs next time I visit Beckenham Place Park.

77948524 over 5 years ago

There is no evidence at street level that these streets are private. I walked along Hillbrow Road today and observed the following:
1) the road name sign at the junction with Coniston Road is "HILLBROW ROAD, London Borough of Lewisham BR1". It does *not* say "Private Road".
2) The lamp posts on the east side of the street have London Borough of Lewisham stickers relating to dog control orders (e.g. no more than 4 dogs per walker). These signs and orders are unlikely to be seen in places not accessible to the general public. There was also a timed waiting restriction plate for goods vehicles and buses over 5t.
3) The street name signs at the junction with Calmont Road are standard Lewisham (blue background) and Bromley (green background)

I also spotted some "advisory" (and almost certainly unauthorised) 5mph signs on lamp posts. As it is a boundary road shared with Bromley, even Lewisham's general 20mph limit does not appear to apply here (see https://www.thegazette.co.uk/notice/2585106 ).

Hi, welcome to OpenStreetMap.

I'm afraid that your addition of a POI partially duplicates a feature already mapped, as St. Christopher's Place was added as a pedestrian area in 2013, as osm.org/way/208904569

You could add the tourism=attraction tag to the existing object if St. Christopher's Place is particularly notable as a tourist attraction, but please read osm.wiki/Tag:tourism%3Dattraction first.

It is also unlikely that St. Christopher's Place is 23 Barrett Street, since this is Euphorium's address ( osm.org/way/107039267 )

78969455 over 5 years ago

I couldn't find anything either, so I'll get the train up there and take a run around to get a GPS trace as soon as weather, training plans and rail engineering works allow.

At least there's a single instance of leisure=park there now which was previously missing from the map, although I hope our Pokemon player finds only Pidgey there.

78976443 over 5 years ago

Thanks!

78969455 over 5 years ago

The park has been added as a single park (rather than 3) osm.org/way/759360763 although a survey is still needed to check the true extent.

Hi and thank you for editing OpenStreetMap.

Your edit to the football pitch, based on the default Bing aerial imagery used in the iD editor has changed it to the dimension sof the field or recreation ground in which the pitch is located. The leisure=pitch area should really be "an area designed for practicing a particular sport, normally designated with appropriate markings" (see osm.wiki/Tag:leisure%3Dpitch ). If you could restore the pitch to its original dimensions and additionally map the surrounding area as a recreation ground, that would be really helpful.

Although the pitch markings are not clear in the Bing imagery, if you use the menu on the right of the iD screen to change the background imagery to "Esri World Imagery (Clarity) Beta" they are clearly visible.

Hi, welcome to OSM.

Your changeset comment states "ITV and Channel 4 only", but what you have actually done is deleted the studio building and POIs within it.

Unless it has been demolished, this probably isn't what you wanted.

What were you trying to do? If I can, I'll try to help you.
