I find this is much better:
http://ra.osmsurround.org/
Sometime in the last year it was upgraded from just a simple exact
'spade'='spade' search, to give multiple answers ('spade street', 'spade lane',
'my spade', etc)
And a bunch of other search and analysis facilities too.
HTH.

AIUI that's because it was originally Regional Route 10. Re-signing it (last year, I think) as NCN10, which hadn't been taken, was an expedient way of getting rid of a Regional Route without causing much confusion. It's certainly no more broken than the A-road numbering system where "out-of-zone" roads such as the A14 etc. are now incredibly commonplace. cheers Richard -- View this message in context: http://gis.19327.n5.nabble.com/Cycle-routes-please-document-your-relations-tp5721062p5721069.html Sent from the Great Britain mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ___ Talk-GB mailing list Talk-GB@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-gb

(I've just added NCN141 which is a relatively small route, but is properly signed by the red and white NCN route signs). Perhaps we should have some text on that Wiki page to clarify what the table should contain? - Does the 1x, 2x, 3x etc numbering system still apply? I understood that Sustrans were in the process of reclassifying some regional routes and adding more 3-digit routes? (See http://www.sustrans.org.uk/what-we-do/national-cycle-network/route-numbering-system ) The Sustrans numbering system has always seemed a little broken to me. NCN10 is apparently "Eastern" despite being a Coast to Coast route, and doesn't qualify as "7x. Scotland and Northern England" despite being further north than the NCN72. Very odd. -- View this message in context: http://gis.19327.n5.nabble.com/Cycle-routes-please-document-your-relations-tp5721062p5721067.html Sent from the Great Britain mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ___ Talk-GB mailing list Talk-GB@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-gb
[Talk-GB] Cycle routes - please document your relations!
Hi all, There is a very useful wiki page: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/WikiProject_United_Kingdom_National_Cycle_Network/National_Routes which documents ids for each route relation on the NCN. Please use it! Before creating an NCN relation, check if one exists already; and after you've created one, please add the id to the table. Otherwise we end up with the situation that routes get accidentally mapped with three or four separate relations, sometimes even on the same way. And yes, we should have an awesome search-by-tag function for relations in the API, but patches welcome etc. cheers Richard ___ Talk-GB mailing list Talk-GB@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-gb
