Welcome to OpenStreetMap and thanks for adding the building.

The ref tag on a post box refers to its unique reference number. If you wish to add its postcode, you can use the postal_code tag.

The addr:postcode is only used for addressable features on the map, which you correctly used for the building you added. For things like post boxes, postal_code is used.

I've restores the ref in
osm.org/changeset/163189209

It's not formally unnamed, as it has Designated Street Name USRN 37011041 and it's recorded in OS Open Names as "Church Path". If "Diagon Alley" is the local nickname, it would go into the loc_name tag.

If there is a 10% incline on part of the path, it might be better to split it and apply the incline to just that section.

How does the path cross the stream flowing through the woods - is there a bridge?

Welcome to OpenStreetMap.

Access restrictions in OSM, like the bicycle=* tag, apply to legal restrictions. In the UK, use_sidepath does not apply as cyclists use roads by absolute right (unless explicitly prohibited by a traffic order with accompanying signage). In some other jurisdictions, cyclists are required to use a cycle track if provided, which is what this tag conveys.

The tagging on this section of Prestwick Road which would describe the situation is cycleway:left=separate + sidewalk:left=separate (left is in relation to the direction in which the road was drawn in OSM).

Welcome to OpenStreetMap and thanks for adding this.

For a short-term closure with a duration of weeks or months, it is probably better to use a conditional restriction rather than motor_vehicle=no (or access=no, or changing the road to highway=construction).

This is because some routing software only updates weekly or monthly, so with a monthly update the worst case could potentially result in the software assuming that the road is open now, but closed for a month after the roadworks have finished.

If the road closure was until 9th March you could use this, obviously amending the end date as appropriate.

motor_vehicle:conditional=no @ (2025 Feb 28-2025 Mar 09)

Welcome to OpenStreetMap.

While it may be frustrating when people trespass, the best way to deal with this in OSM is to set the correct access tags, in this case access=private, to the path. The problem with deleting existing features is that they tend to get re-added, without any access restrictions, causing the problem to recur.

Many maps show private paths, tracks and roads, including Ordnance Survey and Google. These maps may not make the fact that it is private explicit, but OSM does.

There is more detailed information on the OSM Wiki here
osm.wiki/Why_can%27t_I_delete_this_trail%3F

I have reinstated the path and made it private in osm.org/changeset/163049053

(Review requested) You have just added SEO spam into a changeset comment and inserted an unrelated node into a public transport route relation. Reverted.

The one-way sections are egregious examples of mapping non-existent dual carriageways for the renderer by a stunningly incompetent "mapper". They'll be gone shortly.

@Firefishy had it been the unverifiable office of an online business, I would have just reverted. However, whether I approve of their business methods or not, it is a verifiable shop which can be visited and as such still belongs in OSM. Bing street side imagery shows a travel agent at that location, with a different name but the same phone number on the sign.

Obviously, I flagged the account to DWG for spam. The shop deserves to be on OSM, the account responsible doesn't.

If you split a road around an island, you need to add oneway=yes to the new segments. You also need to ensure that the direction in which the way is drawn is correct (the iD editor has a reverse function).

Although this is not the case here, you also need to ensure that any other tags relating to lanes, sidewalks, cycleways, parking and verges are updated to reflect the newly split carriageway's features.

Tagging for the renderer isn't "fixing" anything, particularly when you don't update the affected tags correctly. If there isn't physical separation between lanes in the real world, they shouldn't be mapped as separate ways in OSM.

I'm pretty sure I knew what I was doing when I remodeled this junction and do not appreciate having my work undone just to make it look prettier in OSM Carto.

PS Your business is now mapped as osm.org/node/2091318064 (merged with the node for the previous occupier of no. 68/68a).

Thank you for adding your business to OpenStreetMap, which I have moved to the correct location on the corner of George Lane and Pulteney Road.

You may wish to reconsider opening_hours=24/7 unless your premises really are open to walk-in customers at all times. Obviously your website is always open, but that isn't useful information on a map.

Your SEO spam in the changeset comment is somewhat irritating, however renaming a section of George Lane and adding your business to the 55 bus route relation were nothing short of vandalism. This has been reverted.

Thank you!

If you need any help with future roadworks, please ask on the community forum.

Access restrictions in OpenStreetMap reflect verifiable legal restrictions, which in the UK for foot=no requires a traffic order and a "pedestrians prohibited" sign (TSRGD diagram 625.1 - https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:UK_traffic_sign_625.1.svg ). There is no such thing as a "cars only restriction".

Pedestrians in the UK use highways by absolute right unless explicitly prohibited.
