Why add layer=-1 to footways/sidewalks which are clearly not subterranean?

Looking at your other edits breaking cycleways in the area, this is starting to look deliberate #DWG

Changing segment way/1070108461 in the middle of a cycleway to a footway/sidewalk broke cycle routing. We tend not to have sidewalks in the middle of, and perpendicular to, the highway.

Thanks, but highway=cycleway already implies foot=yes unless explicitly tagged otherwise. The presence of segregated=* also makes it fairly clear that it's shared.

A blue dotted line on the OSM Carto map tiles does not imply that the way is not shared, or that pedestrians do not have priority.

Please consider reverting your change.

Thanks!

A list of the words, which might be slightly rude in some contexts, which have been deemed "profanities" would be helpful.

Oh joy, OSM Carto's maintainers seem unlikely to support highway=busway any time soon. Never mind, it was only approved in 2020.

Changed back to highway=service in

@yasslay I suspect that this may be a StreetComplete issue of not confining changesets to an appropriately sized bounding box, rather than user error.

See:
https://github.com/streetcomplete/StreetComplete/issues/4582

The fence had been removed by late 2019, however there is still a kerb and Seething Lane should not be connected to the cycle track or carriageway of Byward Street, just the sidewalk.

No problem. I've changed it to bridge:structure=arch.

My concern here was that the word "Dyke" in names appeared to have been treated as potentially obscene in the UK *at all*. It is the more common spelling of the word in British English and although Dike also occurs it does so only 150 times in OS Open Names compared to Dyke's 410.

I think that bridge:structure=humpback is more appropriate for smaller bridges with a much steeper gradient than an arch-supported bridge like Blackfriars Bridge.

Possibly chosen due to ambiguity in the diagrams shown by StreetComplete?

bridge:structure=*

Could you explain how Bing was your source for this edit?

It's also on OS 25 inch maps from 1892-1914 (via NLS) and existed before Westerley Way.

In the case of Lin Dike, "Dike" is the spelling used on the out of copyright OS 1:25k 1st series 1937-61 maps available to OSM via the National Library of Scotland, however that refers to the (unmapped) watercourse parallel to the Arrow Lane footpath.

Typo clean up, possibly, but not "profanity". Both spelling are common in the UK and are better checked against reliable sources like OS Open Data rather than assuming a commercial sign is authoritative.

OS Open Names contains 410 objects with the spelling "Dyke". If that offends transatlantic prudishness, hard luck.

(to Friday Street junction, not to Cannon Street)

I have also added Three Mills as a place node:
node/10304527922

The wikipedia and wikidata tags for Three Mills had already been added to Three Mills Island:
way/24224345

I have restored the wikidata tag for Clock Mill, which refers to that (listed) building only.

I have added a note to objects where I have used permit, explaining that it is undocumented and needs discussion, together with a link to
