Have the shared cycle path sign and give way markings visible on Bing Streetside at the Southfield Road end of way/165229870 been removed or replaced with a cycling prohibited sign?

Hi, welcome to OpenStreetMap and thank you for adding details to the map.

If you're adding individual plots with allotments, it might be better to tag the plot as allotment=plot and use the ref key to store the plot number.

allotments=plot

If there's any way in which I can help you, please feel free to ask.

Please stop it. There are NO missing trunk roads in London, none of our trunk roads are called "trunk road" and we're really quite keen on not having the our main railway lines turned into roads.

Please stop doing this, until you know what you are doing.

Hi BCNorwich,

Thanks, I just noticed and am about to revert them. Profile reported to DWG for vandalism (or at least a level of negligence where the distinction between the two is unimportant).

Hi, and thanks for editing OSM.

Unfortunately, the "trunk road" you mapped is a main railway line.

It is fairly unlikely that the many active mappers in London would have missed the presence of a trunk road until now.

Hi,

Unfortunately, you renamed roads in the live OpenStreetMap data instead of the copy you presumably intended to use for your routing project.

Hi,

Many thanks for adding all these postcodes and street names.

Would you consider using the post town (London) as the value of addr:city, rather than the name of the London Borough? While the buildings are within the London Borough of Hackney, it's not really part of the address.

Now reopened, but with a temporary(?) 7.5t HGV limit.

Thanks!

One positive of all this is that we should end up with better pedestrian routing and accessibility mapping across a fair-sized chunk of Hammersmith & Fulham, Brent and RBKC. It's a pity Waymap haven't engaged so far, as really I'd like to find out what they were trying to achieve and help them (within reason) to do it.

Once I've done as much as I can with Bing imagery, Mapillary and TfLCID, I'll walk as many of the streets affected with StreetComplete (and boost my ranking on CityStrides as a bonus).

Incidentally, I keep meaning to thank you for resolvimg so many of my outstanding notes.

We had a large number of separate sidewalks added following undiscussed organised edits, apparently on on behalf of Waymap (certainly using their tasking manager). It's hard to tell what the intention was, because neither @alisonlung, nor anyone else at Waymap seems keen to discuss the problems.

These probably should have breen spotted and reverted months ago, given @alisonlung's habit of "accidentally" breaking bicycle routing.

Separate sidewalks are great where they improve pedestrian routing on main roads and around complex junctions. I've added quite a few myself and have preserved (with more detailed tagging) all of those added by this project.

Decorative sidewalks on residential streets with few or no crossing points are much less useful for pedestran routing. They're even less useful if they stop at the edge of the task manager square the user is trying to complete, or if the crossings are just nodesv dropped where the user feels a crossing "should" be. Given that Waymap is a routing service for VI users, I thought adding a dozen or so entirely fictitious crossings on the busy Harrow Road was irresponsible at best and dangerous at worst.

It's taken me 3 weeks so far to salvage useful pedestrian features from these edits. Checking crossings and adding accessibility features will take a couple more.

changeset/132089241

I should stress that I would NEVER simply delete separate sidewalks added by a user who participates in OSM, whether I considered their addition to be a good idea or not.

Hi,

For a location to show up on OpenStreetMap, it needs to have a type and a physical location (not in the middle of Kings Road, unless you want to combine practicing savasana with being a speed hump :-) )

If it's premises used by Trainify for fitness classes and training, use leisure=fitness_centre
leisure=fitness_centre

If it's Trainify's offices, use office=company
osm.wiki/Tag%3Aoffice%3Dcompany

It also helps to add an address

These aren't "unmarked crossings", but entirely fictitious crossings. Mapping for the router is generally a bad idea, but adding fake crossing over main roads is irresponsible.

What were you asked to do in respect of this project and what feedback, if any, did you get from the user who "validated" your edits?
