Perhaps a cheeky request but would you (or someone else) be able to provide
a short training session on how to update the map (probably with the online
tools, rather than JOSM) if I get a few interested of the project team
(probably 2 or 3) on board.



The project people would probably be able to update the map off the top of
their head, rather than having to produce intermediate OS-free maps.

Hi Andrew



Good to hear from you. It doesn't seem that complicated. Just add
cycleway=lane to the relevant stretches of road if there are to be
cycleways on both sides or use cycleway:left=lane or cycleway:right = lane
as appropriate if not.  Add  a tag like description:COVID19=temporary for
future selection for easy maintenance. Glad to help out editing these if
you can provide a rollout timetable and a map that isn't OS copyright
tainted.  Also I'd like to include the  local neighbourhood active travel
plans plans for Kings Heath and Lozells with the proposed installation of
modal filters and the pedestrianisation of York Road. Again a rollout
timetable and an OS copyright-free map would help obviate the need for a
ground survey. (perhaps you should publish public-facing maps on one of the
OS open-licensed  products? Or perhaps you are and are just adding the
OS-required attribution, if so some clarity would be helpful.) For the
modal filters best practice seems to be just convert a short stretch of the
road to highway=cycleway with perhaps barrier=modal_filter. And finally if
you could provide me with details of the school street programme ready for
September rollout I'd be grateful. I've placed notes on each of the schools
affected but I need details of which bits of which roads are covered and
what times .Perhaps there's   already a web page up?



Good to be planning work with you again



Regards



Brian

Hi Brian,



BCC are currently building a bunch of pop=up cycle lanes for COVID –
consultation and maps here:-

The question has come up as to whether these should go on OSM. I noted that
there is a wiki page about COVID but I’m not sure I’m knowledgeble enough
to put things on to the map with that level of complexity. I understand
some of the features will remain forever, but others will get taken out.



Could you let me know your views on all this?





Andy
