You have go this wrong again, the speed limit through the centre of Troed-y-rhiw is 20 mph.

Again what sources are you using for these edits and what dates are they from?

Again you seem to have a problem with 20 mph.

This edit has gone very very wrong. You seem to have changed some admin levels to 60 which is clearly wrong.

Also you have yet to comply with https://wiki.osmfoundation.org/wiki/Organised_Editing_Guidelines

Also motor_vehicle=yes on a footway is rather odd, is this really a footway if motor vehicles can use it and what of bikes and horses?

Hi
Changeset comments should inform other mappers what you are intending with the changes you make. Simply the word Edits is stating the obvious and has no value whatsoever.

Please take a few seconds to descibe what you are changing.

Hi Dan
If you are working on behalf of a company or as part of an organised effort then you will need to make sure that whoever is asking you to do the updates follows https://wiki.osmfoundation.org/wiki/Organised_Editing_Guidelines .
There's nothing too onerous there - most of it's just about letting everyone know what you're doing.

If you are working on behalf of a company or as part of an organised effort. Not that there's anything wrong with that (quite the reverse!) but if you are doing this then you will need to make sure that whoever is asking you to do the updates follows https://wiki.osmfoundation.org/wiki/Organised_Editing_Guidelines .

Thank you for your response, but did you personally visit the location?

My question was what streetlevel imagery are you using? As I did not think we had any at that location.

Hi, welcome to OSM and thank you for your edits however I am intrigued by what streetlevel imagery is available here?

I am only going on what the wiki says and hence how other mappers map these objects osm.wiki/Tag:denomination%3Dmormon

Thank you

I was commenting on name='Public Convenience' which is a description.

103690911 over 4 years ago

I would probably go with highway=cycleway here. Highway=bridleway evokes a muddy track in a rural setting.

The important tag will be designation=public_bridleway however don't forget to add horse=designated.

Except my mistake is that the denomination should be mormon.

Cheers Phil

Hi, welcome to OSM.

Thank you for your edit however according the wiki denomination= jehovahs_witness is the correct tag. It seems a bit wrong to include the name in the denomination tag.

Why have you made this series of changes? Has it been discussed anywhere?

The language of OSM is English and the correct term in English is lift. Elevator is an Americanism.

Hi, thank you for your edit however names should be only used for the actual name of an object and not for descriptions.

Hi Mundik
This road is certainly a legal right of way, it is not unknown for local residents to try to deter access (especially in COVID times) and it is my job to ensure they don't succeed,

Looking at the photo I would remove access=agricultural and add surface=unpaved tracktype=grade4, foot=yes, bicycle=yes, horse=yes, motor_vehicle=private. I will leave the 4x4 brigade to worry beyond that.

The section between the A483 and Ty Stanley should be restored to highway=unclassified.

This combination should be sufficient to ensure that deliveries to Ty Stanley are made from the A483 and motor vehicles are not routed over the track.

Thank you however the picture you have now shared is just for roadworks and possible delays. It says nothing about a road closure.

Mapping roadworks such as this in the OSM database is not a bad idea. Often they fail to be removed, as as happened in this case and therefore has been directing everyone the long way for over 6 months.

Apps tend to update map data periodically, monthly at best although many are far less frequent and this sort of edit should be avoided.

The OSM database is really not the place for such data.

Access=agricultural really has no legal meaning in the UK. If a track is only accessible to the landowner then it should be tagged as access=private however that is not the case for this track as it is legally a public road. You can legally drive any vehicle here, walk, ride a bike or horse.

I see that you have used OS OpenData Street and from that you would have seen that this road has a solid casing meaning it is public highway and therefore should not be restricted. Access=yes is appropriate.

In order to prevent unsuitable vehicles being routed this way it needs a tracktype tag, did the driver give any indication or take any photos?

Cheers Phil
