Hi Christoph Thanks for this - We have Coventry data but can't get much enthusiasm from the Coventry mappers to complete this. We're still to get Dudley - who wants to approach them? Sandwell routes seem to appear at a different zoom level to the rest? Do we just have to wait for the rendering en

Re: [Talk-gb-westmidlands] Sandwell Gritting routes

Understood; but my concern is that if they're not shown as gritted, and, say, someone writes an app to do route planning via gritted roads, they'll be missed. On 14 November 2011 06:47, Mary Mooney wrote: > Hi Andy M > > Motorways are the responsibility of the Highways Agency, not the local > a

Re: [Talk-gb-westmidlands] Sandwell Gritting routes

Hi Andy M Motorways are the responsibility of the Highways Agency, not the local authority. Probably don't need to grit M5, M6 etc because the average top speed is zero mph (tongue in cheek). Mary Sent from my iPhone On 13 Nov 2011, at 23:29, Andy Mabbett wrote: > 2011/11/13 Christoph Böh

Re: [Talk-gb-westmidlands] Sandwell Gritting routes

Hi all I've updated the gritting map [1]. The data was retrieved from the overpass api and is hopefully up to date. The map now covers the area between 2.275 and 1.378 west and 52.314 and 52.679 north. Let me know if there are areas which should have gritting routes but don't appear on the map. I

Hi everyone We're making great progress with over half the routes now completed. Christoph will be re-rendering the gritting map this weekend so it would be good to see if we could complete this at the same time. There are still two routes unallocated - so grit your teeth and choose one ;-) It'

Hi Gareth Many thanks for your offer of help, but ED is correct - we've already utilised the text route directions published by Walsall Council to complete our gritting map. What would be of great benefit would be for someone to check the inconsistencies we found (see below) and feedback to us. A

Hi all, As I'm a councillor in Walsall and just happened to be on the Winter Planning Sub-Committee, I'm more than happy to ask for the routes (for Walsall) on your behalf, can't think of any reason they'd not give them me. However as I've been out with the gritters you should note that the

Turns out (ongoing conversation on Twitter) that these maps are not a complete route list, but what we might effectively call "priority 1". @sandwellCouncil just said "Depending on weather, we extend it to sideroads sometimes, but these are the main routes and they don't vary" On 17 October 2011
