The bike lanes: Broken!

Posted by Yoshinion on 9 May 2017 in English. Last updated on 15 May 2017.

Okay. It’s been a long while since I’ve been here. Chalk it up to school. I don’t know if any other cities have the same problem, but a few roads in Charlotte were simple lines, with all information removed, names included, other than bike lane information. I fixed a few, check around for other issues.

UPDATE:

05/14/17: Sent message to mapper “mdsuper82”. Awaiting response.
05/14/17: Mapper “mdsuper82” has been a mapper for 11 days as of May 14th.
05/15/17: According to the PM that mdsuper82 sent me, this is a project between the City of Charlotte and “People for Bikes”. mdsuper82 also works in the City of Charlotte Transportation Department.

Yoshinion can you point to a changeset that removed such information? On general when vandalism is suspected it is better not to fix things piecemeal but to do a full revert (or ask somebody to do one).

The first thing I’d do is mention it (politely) to the other mapper - they won’t know there’s a problem otherwise. They’ve only been mapping for a few days, so be gentle :)

An example of the issue we’re having: Way #34570230 part of Changeset #48636262

Example was fixed.

This is NOT vandalism. This is simply a case of a technical error.
