My mistake taking another look at the map (https://www.mass.gov/doc/middlesex-fells-reservation-trail-map/download) that area is mark as restricted.

The signage was not that clear when I was there in the other day (@bikingaround244/traces/4464772) It seams I was biking though the restricted area and a ton of other people where walking and biking though there as well. I agree with you DCR needs to do a better job at putting up signs for this restricted area.

Yeah, that sign is not very clear at all. I would imagine if bikes had to dismount there would be clear indication signs on both sides of the bridge as there are with the other pedestrian bridges in area.

For example way/150052486/history this bridge there are clear signs at both ends that bikes must dismount. Also that bridge is designed with 90 degree turns that are not easy to maneuver on a bike and the over all width of the bridge not being very wide to accommodate bikes and pedestrians at the same time.

My take on it is the Frances Appleton Bridge was built wide enough to comfortably accommodate walkers, runners, bikes, scooters, skateboards and be shared by anything without a gasoline engine (and horses).

If you are really dead set on having the bridge being tagged on bikes=dismount so be it. You should also point out to DCR in your email that they should put up big bike dismount signs on both ends like the other bridges have and start enforcing all the bikers who does not dismount on this bridge because personally I have not seen any biker dismount.

some of these trees (example node/6796129384/history0) seam very random in placement. Maybe instead of the trees a land use tag like natural wood could be used instead? Or maybe these trees are a specific species of tree you are trying to map?

Hi unless I am missing the sign. I went out to double check for a sign and there are no signs indicating that bikes need to dismount. I was under the impression that this bridge (unlike the others) was actually designed for bikes to connect to the bike path.

I know the arthur fiedler footbridge has dismount signs but have not seen signs indicating that bikes need to dismount for the Frances Appleton Bridge. I will check today on my bike ride home. I dont get why cycle and foot path is not an acceptable tag though if both are allowed?

I noticed you added dismount to for bikes on the Frances Appleton Bridge... There are no signs indicating that bikes need to dismount. This connects to a major bike path. Wondering why you changed it to dismount. I think it would be better classified as Cycle and Foot Path (instead of path)

Hi for this moose hill street (way/1014228143/history#map=15/42.1238/-71.2093) I noticed you changed it from residential to unclassified. I am wondering what makes this unclassified as opposed to residential?

for Battery st. (way/8651318/history) you marked the bicycle access as no. I am going to change it to yes. There is no signs indicating that bicycles are no allowed.
