Hi Paul,
The interpolation way opposite Blows Lane is split (see break from
25-27 at level 18). The walkway there is an open footpath between two
distinct properties, whereas the walkway marked opposite Commonwealth
Bank is actually an indoor arcade (needs better tagging e.g. covered)
and hence I did not split the numbering here because the arcade itself
is a "property" with its own number.
There's some strangeness with the nominatim search results and the way
it confuses the town/suburb/village.... John Henderson is on the right
track - it's something to do with the Town/Suburb/Village hierarchy. I
suspect it's a Nominatim issue. It's probably less noticeable in a
metropolitan area where everything is a "suburb".

Hey Ben,
Nice example. I reckon it's worth mentioning the numbers at
Blower's Lane (although on the opposite side of the street) -
undoubtedly numbering in this fashion will assist with routing.
It's probably been covered in the Wiki, and most likely in this
forum previously, but worthy of pointing out again, nonetheless.
Great job!
Cheers,
Paul.

getting updated, but since then it has... and I can tell you it
works a treat! If you search for any valid number on Wharf Street
Forster it will point you there with surprising accuracy.

make the map massively more useable. Search the wiki for more details.
