Hi everyone, In my town there is a new road being constructed. It will be finished in two weeks. The new road has signs on it with a reference number. The reference number is the same as the old road.
You can the roads here: http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=35.69523&lon=127.85744&zoom=15&layers=M The new road is green-and-white. I will change the tags when it opens. I think this is an issue for many roads in Korea, because there is a lot of construction going on. My questions are: 1) What should we do about the ref=* for the old road? 2) What should we do about the class of the old road (it was highway=trunk (blue oval sign) but now the new road is a blue oval. I think we should do this: 1) Delete ref=* from the old road. 2) Change the class to highway=tertiary But... maybe the road will be re-classified or re-numbered. Perhaps I should wait and see. What do you think? I have noticed this in some other places: http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=38.2105&lon=128.431&zoom=14&layers=M Here, a tunnel has been made. The tunnel road is [56], but the old road (over the mountain) was [56]. Should the old road be changed to tertiary, and delete the ref? http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=38.0453&lon=127.9509&zoom=14&layers=M Here, a new tunnel for (46) replaces the old, winding road. Best wishes, Andrew PS I have adopted a shorthand for road numbers to make it clear what kind of road they are. It helps me. Please use it if you like it. {xx} Curly braces- motorway shield (xx) Round brackets- blue oval {(xx)} Curly and round brackets- blue oval upgraded to motorway <xx> Angle brackets- White octagon <<xx>> Double angle brackets - White octagon with red strip [xx] Square brackets - yellow rectangle _______________________________________________ Talk-ko mailing list Talk-ko@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-ko
