Hadn't seen it.

I read the wiki. The meaning of "signal" is as opposed to alternatives such as crossing. Sure, the suggested tagging includes crossing=no, keep it if you like it. Crossings aren't implied by highway=traffic_signals.

Hi

I don't see where brands factor in here. Has construction started on this section of road recently?

^^^ 'Sankey Brook Navigation' seems to be a relic of the past used in initial development and construction - may better suit project_name.

Never mind I just read the wiki page

There is an island between the crossings

Hi,

Naming junctions with a junction=yes node is typically only reserved for crossroads. Circulatory junctions and roundabouts are pretty much universally mapped by naming the junction's roadway.

The boundary is where the fence is.

It's separated by a lot more than that, including a few meters vertically. It may run parallel but it's a functionally independent path.

End of route signs are advisory and are only legally enforceable in such case as they're explaining somewhere cycling is prohibited by law anyway.

I'm not suggesting they cycle. I'm suggesting they are allowed to make the connection to fearnhead lane. Otherwise the cycleways either side are entirely redundant.

126468382 over 3 years ago

Bicycles aren't prohibited though? Can you cite any source for this that applies in this instance?

If you want I can go and photograph tomorrow. Clearly you don't value anything I say

There are signs to the north. You're may be tilted and may think I'm stupid but that doesn't mean you're right

The dismount tag implies a restriction on mounted cycling - i.e. pedalling, not an advisory "cyclists dismount" sign. How here are cyclists supposed to be routed beyond the end of the cycleway?

What if cyclists want to access the various other paths connected only to the footway? There isn't a law nor sign prohibiting this

+ updated access tags on cycleways

I made the edit based on the smaller "chopsticks" signs at the side of the road; that's what indicates the start of motorway restrictions in a legal capacity. It's a whole thing, implying restrictions such as national speed limit, restriction against pedestrians, bicycles, horses and learner drivers, among other technical details.

The gantry sign is technically just a direction sign, you could walk past it on foot legally up to the chopsticks sign and you'd be well within your rights (not that you'd want to), assuming there are no signs elsewhere indicating a pedestrian restriction on the A2.

To get around the GPS navigation issue you could tag something like destination:ref, since after the diverge point you are obviously committed to joining the motorway.

^^Plus turning lanes, signal positions

No worries, glad I could help :)

Instead of deleting it, maybe change it to landuse=retail
