Hello, please ask OSM US to extend the challenge to the whole country. @AwoowoArne, @kiwi75 and I have been working on landuse but progress has been painfully slow, and Greece's landuse looks embarrassingly undermapped compared to many countries in Europe. Completing landuse will allow us to focus our limited resources on other critical elements like railways, roads and waterways.

I am trying my best to make sure you do not accidentally end up at the first toll station in the first place. For example, at way/91896251 I have added destination information on what lane to use to reach the toll-free exit slip. It will take time for the navigator to pick up the new data. Please be patient.

161071777

Can you please tell me what journey is causing the error? Because I also have Magic Earth.

161071777

I ran a test journey from Magoula to Patras, and while Magic Earth is capable of detecting toll roads, it will not tell you where and how any times you need to pay the toll. In addition, it appears that the signage for the toll-free slip road before the first toll station at osm.org/?mlat=38.042214&mlon=23.495700 is really dodgy: you have to keep to the rightmost lane to access that slip road.

If the results by Magic Earth is still tricking you into paying tolls, then you may want to file a bug report with them: we are trying our best to make the toll information as complete as possible, which can be seen at the Americana map, but not all routers detect toll roads, nor tell you where you must pay tolls.

Which app are you using? I am not sure how old the data the app is using. Either way, I think setting that exit slip to "toll=yes" isn't going to trick drivers into paying tolls.

You should leave a better changeset comment than just random letters.

Unfortunately, that is not a good reason to use "toll=no", given that a toll must be paid earlier to access that way, and there is no other way to get to that slip road without paying a toll. The way we tag toll roads should be like the diagram in osm.wiki/Greece/Highways#Toll_tagging.

Hello, if a driver has to pay a toll to reach way/69586068, then that road has to be marked as toll=yes. The Americana map renders toll information: https://americanamap.org/#map=14.96/38.02124/23.42784 - please see: toll=*

The changeset was undone because the filter road does not exist (it's blocked off).

165659571

This changeset was undone because the classification did not reflect reality based on position of motorway signs at position 37.2590895,22.0049930

Wikipedia is not a reliable source for this project: those numbers were honestly made up. Please see: osm.wiki/Collaboration_with_Wikipedia

165888965

What is the source for the A122 road number? The number was not on the official motorway list of 2015: https://ia37rg02wpsa01.blob.core.windows.net/fek/15/2015/20151500253.pdf (not copyrighted - government legislative text)

Must have changed since then. Updated at changeset/165943023

Scratch this edit (superseded by 165516263), the landuse was playing silly games with me, which kinda says a lot about how easy (or not) it is to edit via iD. The documentation probably needs refining to show up on iD.

A thread regarding this edit has been opened at https://community.openstreetmap.org/t/ordering-of-names-in-cyprus/129262, as the name ordering change occurred in a geopolitically sensitive area. The reasons for the enquiry are in the linked thread.

Why are you deleting E-roads from the map?

163847110

ViewStreet,

Sorry I have been having a bad day today, but the problem is that you are using service=* without realising that it will demote the importance of tracks that have the tag, as you did at changeset/163764884 and changeset/163847110.

We do not use them on active passenger tracks.

163764884

You actually made the tracks worse than it is in reality. I had to revert it because it broke everything.

@sheldonelectric, You have changed the junction names to a format that I am confident that the Greek community has not agreed on. At this stage, I am concerned that you are editing disruptively and causing rife in our community.

There is a reason you need to work together with the Greek editing community. You cannot insist that *every* one of your edit to the name or name format is the correct way to do it. Databases can have errors or name formats that go against consensus, and when it happens we need to adapt and correct as we can do with "IVI" bus stop in Marousi, North Athens.

Continuing to edit combatively and against the consensus of the Greek community will not change anything.
