Based on the FHRS id changes I've seen it look like it's linked to an inspection, so a new inspection can mean a new ID.

The map on https://gregrs.dev.openstreetmap.org/fhodot/ and the different map layers is really useful for updating the ids, especially via JOSM.

You can click on a region an get a graph below the map showing the FHRS id coverage over time. There's 2 graphs which highlight different data depending on which layer you are on (FHRS establishments vs OSM objects). It looks like the matching was high for Leeds back in 2019/2020 and then slowly over time has reduced, I suspect due to the usual churn of business changes and new inspections.

The Edinburgh OSM group have questions about the inconsistency that some things can disappear straight away, and others and stay for years after they are closed.

Thanks for raising my oversight on this example, I'll do better checks going forward to prevent the same thing happening again.

I've been trying to reduce the length of some of the bars on https://gregrs.dev.openstreetmap.org/fhodot/summary.html to improve the FHRS coverage.

This exact issue of FHRS data still existing after a place has closed or changed is something that the Edinburgh OSM group have picked up on, as we think it would be good for there to be some form of way to tell the above linked tool that the place has closed and thus no longer exists thus preventing these sorts of issues longer term.

Not sie why we would link to a Wikipedia article about a specific bus model. Would the company be a better option?

Thanks for fixing. One of the pain points I find with every door is changing the type of a node. Unless there's a trick or UI element I've missed?

Based on the fix me type, It's a station help point. An interface with speak, microphone and two buttons. One button is for emergency assistance, the other for information. You can get through to a human for help. It's not a general phone. Most stations in the UK have them.

Looking at osm.wiki/wik/Railway_stations amenity=telephone is the closest however it's not a general telephone and doesn't look like a telephone but can be used like one but to only the train company and emergency services.

Yes the amenity=fixme should be removed. Thanks for spotting.

https://www.ipswichstar.co.uk/news/25025087.new-europa-way-link-road-ipswich-officially-opens/ suggests it's been open for a week.

I no longer live in the area to be able to do an in person survey, should it be required.

Err the comment should be the similarly named time Garelochhead!

Thanks for sorting, I thought I'd hit undo on all the cases that is managed to drag a larger object accidentally. Based on my phone GPS the road needed a bit of realignment. I'll try and get the trace off the GPS and see if that's more accurate.

I agree that seems like a better way to tag it.

Also the road between Lillstadt and Wachbach is signed for access only for farm vehicles and walking/cycling only if I've understood the sign right, so it probably needs an update to discourage routers taking you over it for longer journeys. I wasn't sure how best to tag that restriction.

If I remember correctly it's an asphalt surface but poor quality.

Hi Jerry,

I suspect I accidentally put it on the pub instead of the nearby post box.

Shaun,

I'm curious why some roads have been changed from tertiary to tertiary_link which I'd say is invalid especially considering the length. The *_link type road types are normally only used for motorway to secondary and nothing smaller. The link types are also only for very short sections of road, for example slip roads. In this case they are much longer than slip roads.

This is in completely the wrong country. I've reverted the change.
