Hi Rob, it's only a warning of josm. Read it as: "Hey, you made something which may be an error. Are you sure it's what you wanted to do?" and if you answer this question with yes, ignore it
On the other hand: What's the benefit of having gritting routes in osm? are they stable? Are they followed like bus routes, or changed according to weather conditions and other parameters? It may be my experience in mid-western Germany, away from any bigger mountain, but here at most there are severity levels for particular streets (which are first rank gritted, which are unimportant and so on). If it's unstable or changing from year to year I would suggest not to tag them at all. regards Peter Am 23.03.2014 23:07, schrieb Rob Nickerson: > Hi All, > > I have some winter gritting/salting routes that I am trying to work out how > best to tag them.
