I had already added this "cycleway". It was me who tweeted the video that you used as a source. Replied to your tweet. Also separately added longer stretch of road to Mapillary.

So the cycleway is present on the main road as cycleway:left=track & cycleway:left:oneway=no

Aware of the debate between the use of on road track vs seperate cycleway, and generally strongly prefer mapping separate. But in this case the cycleway is in the road, does not cross through side roads, and no restrictions to turn and reach destinations on opposite side of road. Still the issue of tags specific for the the cycle lane

I've deleted this separate cycleway in favour of a cycleway=track. I've sent you OSM message explaining my thoughts (Basically, this is rare example of cycleway=track, because the way it treats side roads, and access to main carriageway)

Surveyed and changed to attempt to fix long standing issues over access & recent changes. I've uploaded images to Mappilary (more to add). Previous approach was manage access as a function of lanes. I've taken approach to manage access as a function of direction. Based on Wiki eg oneway:psv=*

psv=designated

In this edit I've blundered by allowing taxi both ways along western section of sidwell st (using psv tag). I fix later today (6th June)

Hi xmascreations, Looks like you've just made a few changes, which may be your first edits to OpensStreetMap. If so welcome to OSM.

You've moved the locations of building along Gandy Street from approximately correct locations to a wrong locations. I assume you made the changes to align with provided Bing imagery. The buildings were approximately in the correct place, and the Bing imagery was wrong. It's common to align (move) the imagery before tracing over it using sources such as OSMUK Cadastral or OS Streetview. Ease of doing it depends on software used. You used iD. If you open the Background layers menu, there is an overlay called OSMUK Cadastral. This has building outlines you can trace over or use to align Bing imagery (using alignment tool at bottom of menu).

This should not stop you ever adding data, but if your mapping in heavily mapped area such as Exeter you should start with the presumption that the major buildings are properly aligned and satellite imagery is misaligned.

This has not caused caused any notable problems and their is no rush to move the buildings back.

Hi TwitchyA2, Looks like you've just made a few changes, which may be your first edits to OpensStreetMap. If so welcome to OSM.

This changeset and the previous few are missing a "changeset comment' needed so other users get quick a understanding of what you did. See the following osm.wiki/Good_changeset_comments.

You should also provide a source for your changes. There should be boxes to fill in with this info just before you submit the changeset.

There is a specific to this changeset. You've moved the location of the building from a correct location to a wrong location. I assume you moved it to align with provided Bing imagery. The building was in the correct place, and the Bing imagery was wrong. It's common to align (move) the imagery before tracing over it using sources such as OSMuk Cadastral or OS Streetview.

I'll move the building back to the proper location. And thanks for adding info.

Hi, You've traced a couple of patterns made in crops from different years from different imagery. These are were temporary with a years crop growing, and should not be mapped.

Can you make another edit, and delete them? Thanks.

I've made changes to the area to show start of construction and updated note. changeset/105419800 Cycle past site regularly so I'll add more detail soon, and keep updated

Hi, had a look at changeset due to review_requested tag. Everything looks good to me. It looks like you fixed the blunder made in changeset/98964266. Now that I'm looking at the area I'm making some trivial changes to alignment using osmUK Cadastral layer.

Changes have been made to road to only allow only bicycle traffic. The local government has stated it has been done due Covid-19, resulting in less Bus & Train travel, leading to more cycling and the need for roads to enable safe cycling
