This edit was reverted. Because the segment exists on recent imagery from 2023.

changeset/158596863

Hello,
I think you must be using outdated imagery. That removed highway segment is visible on 2023 CT imagery as well as on current Bing photos.

Hi and thanks for contributing!
Looking around the area shows that there is already 'Lisike Beach' mapped as area: way/1085907735

Your added point is therefore a duplicate object and should be removed.

Cheers

Hi,
out of curiosity, how are those residential areas defined? Is that coming from a database?

It's because I noticed that sometimes you draw them around one block, but other time you include several blocks including the residential roads.
way/1326132933#map=17/41.666860/-72.762756

And sometimes you include all houses in that block but sometimes you exlude several. Like in case of Day/East Street intersection.
way/1326132932

cheers

Routing software would navigate though that section of the Meadow Road regardless of the classification. I don't think there is much benefit in having it as primary.
Maybe try reaching out to @jnighan, who put a lot of thinking into road classification in CT, or ask on Slack before endeavoring in road reclassification.

Hi,
thanks for editing, but I don't think it's a good idea to make 200 ft stretches of primary roads. Ideally we would want to have long stretches of roads connecting important cities as primary and not small stubs between interstate off-ramps.

Hi and welcome to OSM!
Two tips: when you draw a building building press Q key to square its shape and make its angles 90˚. That way the building looks much nicer.

And when finished editing in one area. Please upload your changes before moving to a new area that is far away.

Cheers

Here again.
Please go through your edits and move house numbers from "name" field into "addr:housenumber"

Here you deleted a correct building that contained a correct street name and house number. Your 44 A-C should have expanded the original information in the address field not replace the already good data.

Here again, you are using the "name" tag wrong. These are house numbers.

Here a "leasing office" nor a "mail room" is a post box. Post box is: amenity=post_box

Please fix your edits.

Hi,
here again the house number belongs to addr:housenumber
Also when you draw a building please press Q key to make all its angles 90˚

Hi,
I noticed that you are using name tags wrong. That field is reserved for an actual name of the object.
If number `1159` is an address then it should be added to the address number addr:housenumber=1159

addr:housenumber=*

I think those are regular residential roads for accessing residential buildings. Driveways are shorter, leading to a garage of place where people park their car.

Since there is no physical barrier nor a traffic sign preventing entry anybody can legally use those roads. And I assume delivery trucks and visitors regularly do so. In this case it is better to change access=private to ownership=private.

ok. Thanks for the info.
I looked into CT ECO imagery from 2019 and saw some containers no the road so I added a track until that point.
Maybe you can check if that reflects the reality that you saw.

Hi and welcome to OSM!
I ist impassable because there is a gate or were all traces of the road removed?
If the road is still physically there but the access is restricted, we keep the road in OSM and add an access=private tag to it.

Cheers

Hi are there any gates preventing car access or no trespassing signs?
I can't see anything from streetlevel photos nor from aerial imagery.

here you changed Long Islad Sound from bay to rock.
I already fixed that.

Hi,
here again "Real Estate Office" is just a descriptive name, which we don't add.
Important is to mark it as office by adding the appropriate tag:
office=estate_agent

office=estate_agent

Here you removed information that it is an island and made a building out of it which is obviously wrong.
If you make a mistake in iD editor you can always use undo function remove your mistake before uploading your changes.
