Hi.
Suburb can mean an area bounded by a gazetted boundary. There is a sense in
which town is similar to suburb, in the sense of how the boundary is
defined. I am pretty sure the UK is different in this regard.
I don't know if West Pymble is a gazetted suburb (I think yes), but it
would then have
Thanks for that.

Most of Circular Quay, east of Pitt St seems to have disappeared.

7;t actually do it. In general
I would say that "map only" routes are not routes in the OSM sense.
Possibly they are suggestions.
I think we should not map such routes in OSM due to the copyright issue
alone, but at what point does the existence of the map imply the existence
of the route
e sense here. (e.g. Leichhardt council's local routes in Sydney.) I
don't tag multi-connected routes using a relation, as (IMHO) the different
streets are not part of the same route.

Hi.
My 2c.
It seems like there are a few issues here:
1 - The current mapnik style does not identify unpaved roads at all.
2 - For an unpaved road, the quality of the surface can vary a lot, and it
would be good to have a way to tag this.
3 - Some roads require a 4WD. This can be a legal requi
Agreed. What Ian says. Use a route relation.

You can change how mapnik renders by defining different styles for
different zooms.
Essentially with render hints you are saying that you would like this way
to look like a different type of way. If this does not map to some
verifiable attribute of the way then it becomes your preference.
Presuma
render
it as a different type of road.

Hi.
Common usage is that surface=paved is any kind of sealed road including
asphalt.

Hi.
Yes just put multiple nodes.
E.g. petrol station that has a toilet.

Here's another one that is not fixed yet:

I haven't looked into that one yet, but I suspect one end of the road (or
both ends) is not connected to the surround
