Hi, Are these really motorways? Please see this page:- highway=motorway

I've removed a few duplicated sections of highway. There are a few junctions that are not compatible with motorways which I can't remedy.

Regards Bernard.

Hi, You are inadvertently duplicating sections of the highway, I've just removed a couple. Please check before uploading.

Hi, Welcome to OpenStreetMap.

No need to tag the node as parking because all tags are on the area outline, that will suffice.

Regards Bernard.

If the paths have any legal status can you please show where the legal status can be verified. It is an OSM requirement that anything added to the OSM database must be verifiable to anyone else.

For instance, a PRoW is verifiable via the relevant definitive map. A road name can be verified by a sign.

If the name "Permissive Path" cannot be easily verified then it does not belong in the OSM database.

Regards Bernard.

Hi, Welcome to OpenStreetMap.

Googles terms are not compatible with OSM, therefore we are not able to use Google as a source of information of any kind. Thus I've removed the tag source=Bing;Google, as I don't think you really took any info from Google.

Regards Bernard.

Hi, the node you've added to the power line bends the power line which would not be correct. Is there a pole here, if so it should be tagged power=pole. If there's no pole there should not be a node.

Regards Bernard.

Hi, Names in OSM as any feature must be verifiable to everyone. I very much doubt a path would be formally or informally named "Permissive Path". Also it's not OSM's practice to join highways to other non-highway features. Thus I've amended some features in this changeset.

Regards \Bernard.

I've put the question to the person who added them.

Removed a duplicated section of footpath and tweaked barriers.

Hi, Are you sure folk do not walk these lines as paths? They don't have to be designated paths to exist. If folk walk them then they are highways.

Regards Bernard.

The hedge was also self-intersecting, which is incorrect mapping.

Hi, You placed the hedge Way: 1182154351 on top of an existing hedge. I've removed the duplicate.

Regards Bernard.

Hi, Welcome to OpenStreetMap.

Sorry to say you dragged the road out of alignment and changed a building to a landuse area, not to OSM best practice. Thus I've reverted the changeset.

Regards Bernard.

Hi, Although I didn't add the cave entrances I do know that there are many caves in Croydon some of which can be entered. So these entrances could well be valid, thus I've reinstated them.

Please don't remove stuff just on your suspicion without investigation. I would suggest you contact mapper JDurn if you wish to question the cave entrances.

Regards Bernard.

Hi, I'm pretty sure that line is meant to represent the pedestrian area in the center of the garden. I've tagged it area=yes and highway=pedestrian which is the usual tagging for such areas.

Regards Bernard.

Amend building on top of building.

Hi, OSM would term Holly Close as a service road, driveway. There also looks like there's a gate across it.

Regards Bernard.

Hi, Welcome to OpenStreetMap.

I think you wanted to join the new path between the road and the footpath. I've amended it to this end. You had the path joined to the area outline and the road.

Regards Bernard.

Hi, Welcome to OpenStreetMap.

I've removed several sections of duplicated highways, these would have disrupted routing. Please heed warning messages like the above one and check before uploading.

Regards Bernard.

Hi, I've removed a duplicated section of the Western Boundary.

Regards Bernard.
