Hi, I've sectioned off a section for the bridge on Usman Abad Road, then removed the bridge tags from the long sections of the remaining road.

Hi, The gate tagged access=agricultural should logically stop drivers looking for your house going to that farm gate.

I've added addresses to three houses in the area Woodlands, Trevigue, and Springle House. I've added description tags to the drives going to the houses. For your house Woodlands, It seems you want to encourage delivery there so I've changed the access tag from private to delivery.

I think I understand that this is about what you want and it's as per OSM practice. I've tested the routing and it looks OK, (doesn't go via the gate). Please have a look and let me know if anything needs changing.

Regards Bernard.

Hello, Thanks for responding to my previous comment on Changeset: 120641439
I've now been able to go through all your changes up to and including this changeset. I've removed all the many duplicated sections of highway. I've amended or removed many of the permissive access tags.

As I said duplicate highways seriously disrupt routing. If a way needs amending or correcting it should be done to the existing way. Thus the history of the way is preserved in the OSM database. You ought not delete and redraw a highway, you ought not draw a new way atop of an existing way.

Access is tagged as permissive if one needs to gain permission before proceeding on a way. A highway, even a private highway ought not be tagged access=permissive if it is publicly accessible as I think these highways are. Further, I don't think that cycle access is restricted here as you indicate by adding bycycle=no. Just because you don't see any cycles in the KartaView imagery doesn't mean cycling is prohibited. The same logic applies to the foot=no, horse=no tags on some highways. Is pedestrian access actually banned?

Some of the tags you've added are unnecessary as by their absence they are implied. Like divider=no, parking=no and sidewalk=no, if not tagged these statements are implied.

Lastly, I think there were some occurrences of motor_vehicle=no where vehicles can clearly be seen on KartaView.

I apologise if the above may seem officious but I'm just trying to clearly make statements.

If you need any help please just ask.
Regards Bernard.

Hi, I've removed the improbable name. Names in OSM should be the formal verifiable names.

Regards Bernard.

Hi, Welcome to OpenStreetMap.

If the access is to the farm then it's tagged access=agricultural, also it looks very much like a made-up track rather than a path. I've added the gate as well as made minor amendments.

Regards Bernard.

Hi, I'm sorry about that, not intentional, but a serious inadvertent click of the mouse. I've reverted the changeset to as it was before my slip up.

I was removing self-intersections from the building outlines and must have accidentally (orthogonalised) straightened out all the lines. Anyway, you can now see the problems I was trying to correct. The second house from the south has a self-intersection of its outline. The fourth house from the south has a node that draws its outline over the third from the south house.

I've left the problems so you can see them, I'll correct them later or you can correct them if you wish.

Regards Bernard.

Hi,
In my opinion, the highway is a gated road. It is signed at the east end to indicate it as being such. There are at least two "cattle gates, please close" across the road. This knowledge is gained from sources not allowed in OSM.

The western section is named as "Highgate Lane" on OS OpenData StreetView.

Thomas Jarvis may have more local knowledge.

Regards Bernard.

If you could please respond to this comment perhaps we could discuss the issues mentioned above.

Please don't keep duplicating highways.

Hello, I see you are still duplicating highways and tagging them as permissive. Both of these actions are incorrect. Duplicating highways, (placing one atop another) as well as being incorrect severely disrupts proper routing.
For the access=permissive tag on all these highways, I would ask does all traffic have to gain permission before using these highways? Or is access publicly available without seeking permission? If access is freely available then the access=permissive ought be removed.

With regard to the above comments, have you been back over your previous changesets and made appropriate regard/action on the comments there.

Regards Bernard.

Hi, I've removed some roads because they were duplicates. I'm not sure if all the newly added tags are correct.

Hi, Welcome to OpenStreetMap.

No, you can't change comments made here. It doesn't matter though most are not noticed.

I've tweaked the park and water areas to the Bing imagery, looks OK now.

Regards Bernard.

Hi, Welcome to OpenStreetMap.

You somehow added a bridge tag to the whole of footpath Way: 575662272 when adding the bridge section. No problem I've removed the tags.

Hi, Welcome to OpenStreetMap.

Nice work, you've learned how to map very quickly, it's a shame that you've put effort into nonsense though. There's a lot that needs properly mapping around this area. If you need any help please just ask.

I've reverted the fiction so no harm done.

Regards Bernard.

Hi there, I just wanted to point out that something went a bit awry. There were three instances of duplicated edges reported on OSM Inspector this morning:- http://tools.geofabrik.de/osmi/?view=routing&lon=-2.21600&lat=57.15419&zoom=14&overlays=duplicated_edges (they will be gone tomorrow). On looking closer they were three duplicated sections of highways. In each case, both ways were uploaded by yourself. I assumed you had deleted and redrew them as all history in each case, of both ways, was attributed to yourself, but I'm not sure of that on now reflecting. Anyway, each of the three highways was duplicated, a highway with a second highway on top of the first.

All is well now. I only noticed it because every day I go over the UK and other parts of the world sorting out duplicated sections of highways. I hope it's a useful contribution.

Regards Bernard.

Hi, I've tagged the building as residential as it's made up of several houses rather than being a single house.

Hi, Duplicated highways were removed but the new tagging looks like it might need amending.
