Most construction on existing road ways happens round here either
during the day or during the night, depending where the work is
happening, but it usually isn't 24x7 so the road closures would only
be in effect some of the time.

Righ, the issue itself is a very serious and relevant thing. Any other
supporters? It might be started as a wiki page. Maybe it could be a
bot which sets and un-sets tags road=construction (and maybe some
more) to OSM database in more data source-friendly way. I just don't
imagine road authorities to use plain potlach or JOSM to post "today's
works" every morning to us. And a special rendering layout, very
similar to the recent "routing bugs" layout from CloudMade.

I'm reading talk-list once a month or so, please email me directly.

You may be only kidding, but I just spent an hour dodging construction
traffic here in Minneapolis. This would be great and incredibly useful for
the general public. If we exposed a simple API for municipalities to specify
which roads or road segments are under construction or closed, I bet they'd
be happy to send in data. They get frustrated when people drive on their
under construction roads, too!

I have an idea: it could be a crowd+ sourced map of all the closed
streets. Everybody already knows where the open streets are, but
online database of currently closed streets would be in a way much
more useful for any car driver.

Good to see you agreeing that ODbL will keep OpenStreetMap open ;-)

May I suggest starting your closed fork from scratch rather than violating
the principals of our existing CC-BY-SA licensed data.

It'd be perfect for the closed source fork of OSM which comes into place
after the content is moved from CC-BY-SA to DbCL.

I'll take it.
