Hey Peter, I'd like to first say I didn't really know what your account was doing when I saw those stop_lines, but I certainly see some value in them now. I hope your company stays engaged and keeps contributing to OpenStreetMap!
I think there is more value in having the ways re-tagged than having them deleted. I think one of the important things is that the road_marking ways should be joined to any relevant intersecting ways (probably highways) with a node (utilsplugin2 should help). -Vivek On Wed, Sep 20, 2017 at 10:12 AM peter flier <peterfl...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hello everyone, > > This being my first post to this list, I hope it has gotten through.
