@johnrobson87 @CyclingEdin @SpokesLothian It looks like the way has been changed to a path, but I'm wondering if it needs to be disconnected from your description? #map=19/56.06032/-3.58931" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">openstreetmap.org/changeset/1502…

Twitter #HiveMind does anyone know the story of this path in Valleyfield Fife. Crosses the Bluther Burn then just stops even though indicated as a connection on @OSMScotland?
Seems like a good missing link avoiding the main through road.

Andres Freund, the principal software engineer at Microsoft who discovered the xz backdoor really does deserve a big pat on the back. 👏
The outcome could have been much, much worse.

@SiMacKWorkshop @highlandcyclist it's now showing on our cycle map layer:

For nearly 30 years the HCC has been campaigning for a safe route around the Beauly Firth. Now, at last, the section from Dunballoch to the Kiltarlity road junction ( Brockie's corner ) has been provided. Read our update from Ged Church.

@highlandcyclist Hi, is this the location of the cycle path - continuing from the other one, along the west side? As we can add it to our map.

If there's any other cycling infrastructure missing from the map feel free to tweet us or add a note to the map. ^M

We are still, working out our social plan for April. However the inaugural #geomobEDI is taking place on the 26th March, and we (at least @chrisfl) will be there. thegeomob.com/post/mar-26th-…

@CyclingEdin @DAstonSNP @LewisMichie0 @STVNews @FinlayMcF @jomowat @cocteautriplets @owenboswarva OpenStreetMap was updated by a volunteer mapper to remove the road connection 4 months ago, Google at least a month ago.
Maybe should be something councils check after a roads project is complete?
Would also be interesting to know exactly what satnavs these drivers were using. ^M
English
@DAstonSNP @LewisMichie0 @STVNews @FinlayMcF @jomowat @cocteautriplets Interesting answer
Perhaps @improvserv can explain how it works and ways to get SatNav Cos to update faster (if that is where the problem is)
Meanwhile: barriers then bollards? AND sort the steps for pedestrians
@LivingStreetsEd @OSMScotland @cyclestreets @owenboswarva
English
Temporary barriers are set to be installed to prevent drivers attempting to drive down a set of steps in Edinburgh.
Some claim their satnavs are routing them across a pavement towards Greenside Lane.

A lovely note left by a blind OpenStreetMap user asking to add missing tactile paving and crossing information.
In the end their daughter had added the info using @StreetComplete
Great motivation to keep on adding these details.
