Hello and Welcome to OpenStreetMap.
Thanks for your addition to OSM, unfortunately in it's present situation it doesn't work as you'd think it should. A gate should be a barrier across a highway limiting progress along the way. As you've mapped it, it is a linear feature along a part of the linear highway. For a barrier to a road the gate tags should be on a single node. Please see here for clarification :- barrier=gate

I can change it for you if you wish and/or if there's anyway I can help please just ask.

Reload your browser tab and the path should be there, bye.

Hi, yes it will render given a little time. I noticed that the school outline was duplicated and deleted one of those ways. That might slow down the re-render a bit. I can see a partial render so it should be OK.

Hi and Welcome to OpenStreetMap.
I just joined ways together where your new path crossed over a cycle-way, some highways are a bit difficult to see.

Hello and welcome to OpenStreetMap.
With regard to canal way/59416736, v3. You've inadvertently joined the canal to the footpath (Way: 550852431), twice passed the waterway under two sections of Grovesner Road without showing how that is accomplished and crossed the cycleway (Way: 59416732) without showing how. The canal is then joined to the riverbank but not to the actual river. If the canal is navigable in any way from the river then as minimum the waterways should be joined.
If I can assist in any way please just ask.
Regards Bernard

Hello Steve3742 and Welcome to OpenStreetMap.
I just wanted to let you know that there are a few problems with your newly mapped path. If you zoom right in you can see that there are two sections of path, which overlap but do not join to each other. Also neither section actually joins to the road, thus there is no continuity (no routing) from road through path to the next highway. If you look at similar situations you'll see the ways are connected.
The best way forward is to again read through all of the Potlatch 2 help. There should be enough info there to get properly started.
I can see what you intended to do and can modify the map for you if you wish. Or if I can help more please just ask by adding another comment here or mailing me.
Regards Bernard.

Hi just wanted to let you know that the two streams you added are mapped to be flowing away from the main river. I may be wrong but this doesn't seem natural.
Also the stream is connected to the river bank and not to the main river. Thus the stream is not connected to the waterway network.
A remedy would be to reverse the two stream ways and extend the one to join with the river center line.
Please see here for more information :- waterway=stream

Hi Marcos, Thanks for replying, I've changed number 6 to apartments and replaced the POI stating it as natural=tree.

Hi the area added as landuse=residential (Way: 550188877) is within an already mapped residential area (Way: 48976223). Thus the new area is a duplication. It's usual to map larger areas as residential, not each back garden.
I've re-tagged the address for 6 Avenue Road to conform to OSM practice. I wonder though if that property is apartments or two houses?
I also removed the POI peak from the little park. Were you trying to map a tree, for which the tag is natural=tree.

Hello and Welcome to OpenStreetMap.
From looking at the several aerial image layers available it looks like the way ought not to have been deleted. IMHO there is a way here and on the opposite side of Avenue Road and they could be described as highway=service, service=driveway and maybe access=private.
A highway does not have to be for public use to be on the OSM database. Have you been past there to determine the ways do not exist in any form?

Hello and Welcome to OpenStreetMap.
I just wanted to point out a couple of things you're obviously not aware of regarding OSM.
Please see here :- lanes=* regarding highway lane tagging. Although Monkham's Avenue is a single carriageway there are actually two lanes separated by a white line. Thus if you wish to tag lanes then lanes=2 is correct. As shown on the web-page certain assumptions are made in the absence of lane tagging so lane tagging isn't absolutely necessary.

Please see here :- postal_code=* regarding highway post codes. The tag postal_code= is used on highways, (addr:postcode= is usually for building or node tagging). But, postal_code is for streets with the same postcode on both sides of the highway. Monkham's Avenue actually has several post codes along it's length so if post codes are added the road should be split into sections that correctly define each post code area.

Hello and Welcome to OpenStreetMap.
I wondered if you meant the gate to be a barrier to the end of the road. If so then it needs to be joined to the road.
As it is (un-joined) it is not a barrier to the road.

Hello and Welcome to OpenStreetMap.
You've inadvertently placed the Barnado's shop in the middle of Bridge Street. Do you think you could better position it please.

Hi, I refer to Edington Village Park which does not look like a regular park for public use. I can't find any reference to this park at all. Could you please show how it is verifiable?
Thanks Bernard.
