Incidentally, I had a go at recreating the figures for Shropshire & Telford motorways I referred to earlier, excluding sliproads. I've done these by just making a new way down the centreline of the motorway on a local copy - and just finding the total length. I get 12.4km for Shropshire (spot on with the DfT figures) I get only 9.5km for Telford (DfT 12.0km) - which suggests that perhaps the DfT are including some sliproads for that one, but not for Shropshire - maybe to do with the more complex junction 5 being included in the total - or perhaps each authority submits the figures to the DfT - and Telford has chosen to include sliproads?? _______________________________________________ Talk-GB mailing list Talk-GB@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-gb
