I've been ranting about this on this ML a few months ago. Back then I also located each and every one of them (with Overpass API) and dragged them off the highways. I think it was OsmAnd that expected them as nodes on the way, but that has since then been resolved on their side. > > > > > > What happens after that, is entirely up to us.

I think I'll have to choose my 'battles' and I'm concentrating on keeping the route relations correct and up-to-date. That's something which can be achieved nation wide, I think. Once I start doing the same for cycle and walking routes, it should highlight problems caused by newly arriving mappers at that level. Hopefully it will also lead to finding people with an interest in these various route relations and with a willingness to help maintain them. The history viewer is great. Thanks for letting me know about it. It will come in handy, I'm sure. I looked at an edit of myself, realigning the entire bus station of Aarschot on a grid, (which is probably exaggerated, but it makes the rendering look really nice, while stil adhering to what's actually present). Unfortunately I can't zoom in far enough for the differences to show up in a meaningful way. Jo
