Re: [talk-au] TfNSW Cycleways use in OSM

Some councils put up signs (often blue and white) indicating a cycle route. It generally shows the destination, maybe how far to the destination, and generally a picture of a bicycle. The sign might point to a road or a path. This is the best link I could find (sorry - big PDF, but it gives

Re: [talk-au] TfNSW Cycleways use in OSM

Hey all! TfNSW's recent waiver-signing gave us access to their Cycleways dataset ( https://opendata.transport.nsw.gov.au/dataset/cycleway-data ) which includes shapefiles and information about cycle paths, shared paths, cycle lanes, and shared lanes. The data is quite detailed ( see
