Yes, use highway=cycleway (which in UK always implies usable by pedestrians), but you can add foot=yes. For the separated cycle & foot 'lanes' the tag is segregated=yes. (You may need to use the "advanced tags" bit to do this.) The wiki page helpfully shows the typical sign osm.wiki/Key%3Asegregated.

Hi Son of B of A,

You are quite right about this, and I'm going to do it right now. The brand stuff is fairly new and there are a few like this where the people who created it selected a tag different from what most people expect.

You could probably remove the access=no and replace it with motor_vehicle=no, which ought to have the desired effect. I presume taxis are not allowed in this service road? Looks like the next one over has the same problem.

I think in the UK we're recommending avoiding access=no as it is too prone to break routers.

I adjusted connections to the foot bridge over the railway and added the elevator, replacing the parking lot with the new building to N of the station plaza.

I presume some of these edits have been in response to this tweet: https://twitter.com/jonemo/status/1200132316900679680?s=19. Am in a different time zone so can't work out sequencing, but was intrigued by tweet & wanted to see if it was unconnected sidewalks. Anyway wanted just to say I've added a bit more.

OK I've removed the tag (the figure of 18 was probably valid for 1 of them!)

Hi & Welcome to OSM,

I presume something rather annoying has happened, but am very surprised it has anything to do with OpenStreetMap (see further below).

I've restored the building, but using a neutral term "yes" rather than "pub". In OSM a pub building just means one originally constructed as a pub, we have perhaps 50-100 mapped in Nottingham (http://osm-nottingham.org.uk/?z=11&lon=-1.17734&lat=52.96221&bgl=OSM,1,15&l=closedpubs) ranging from supermarkets to mosques & have not experienced any issues over the past 10 years.

The other reference is so obscure that I'd be flabbergasted if anyone was using it (and exists in national data on bus stops).

The reason why I'm surprised that any app or map based on OSM is showing this as a pub is that it has never been mapped on OSM as a pub as such.

If you happen to have any other information about any apps etc. which may be causing this annoyance, you can pass this on to me privately SK53 dot osm at gmail dot com. It may be there is some roque app created by someone with a poor grasp of OSM data & if there is it would be nice to identify who they might be.

Yours,

Jerry aka SK53

Thanks. Looks like the tag should be deleted from a lot of them anyway. I must have inadvertently copied a node with that tagging, because I certainly did not intend to add the module number with these edits.

Hi,

Can I ask what you mean by a "hipster" stile? It looks as though you are the only person using this tag, and it might be that there is a more widely used value which describes the same thing. (A link to a photo would be most useful).

Cheers,

Thanks, I'm just looking at social clubs because iD is changing the tagging (incorrectly) and it has highlighted inconsistency in tags. Mainly we're looking for working man's club style social clubs which are pseudo-pubs.

61165741 about 6 years ago

OK, I'll remove the social club name etc

Hi Andy,

Is 314 Boldmere Road (way/145042764) really a social club just looks like an ordinary semi to me on Bing Streetside.

Has the Paper Mill replaced Darley Abbey Club?

77285943 about 6 years ago

Hi & Welcome to OSM,

A small request: please when you save edits keep them to a small area. A change marked as being in Vanuatu also added tracks in the Flowlands here. It just makes it rather harder to track down recent changes in an area.

Cheers,

I may need to revist whether way/340864012 is actually a public footpath. There is definitely a post with a waymarker leaving the old service road. I hope I have a photo.

Unfortunately, I'm based I England: I'd love to get over for one of the OSM-IE events.

Last time I was over I mapped shops in Armagh city & Moira, and the time before shops in Belfast. I generally keep an eye out for changes try & add useful stuff when I can via old maps (for instance churches & chapels), open data (addresses) & some photos (Mapillary & Geograph - as long as one doesn't use the actual position of the latter).

I saw your tweet about adding this, so I thought I'd add some addresses to things which got mapped over the weekend. In doing so I notice the post office is now in Supervalu.

If you know where it is located you can just add it as a separate node in the store outline. I find addresses using this tool (local to me, but can be used in Northern Ireland): http://osm-nottingham.org.uk/?z=17&lon=-6.33783&lat=54.17525&bgl=OSM,1,15&s=hill%20street&st=SearchOpendataJson&uc=1.

It's great to see Newry taking shape.

Thanks, if one doesn't exit the tag field in iD and then try to copy a solar panel this is what happens. I usually catch them I think.

Anyway in fixing them I found another & added the buildings .

76777827 about 6 years ago

Yes, I'd think so & there's a typo.

Hi Will,

Odd coincidence to see you editing, but trigpoint has just noticed a bug in the name suggestion index which puts the wrong Wikipedia/data tags on Tesco petrol stations, see https://github.com/osmlab/name-suggestion-index/commit/fd1745bab66f3f6dcc9909cf9c17029717383d57.

I've just fixed the lot using level0 (you'll notice my big footpring changesets). There are probably a few other rogue entries, but on the other hand I learnt that Birds rebranded from "Birds the Confectioner" to "Birds Bakery" 4 years ago.

Cheers,

Jerry

But have you got them all? (!)
