Some of the folks in this discussion seem to be assuming that, if a street is shown on plans but has not yet been built at the time that an OSM mapper marks the locations of the existing street, this guarantees that the street will never be built in the future. I was not aware that having OSM map streets was the kiss of death for any further development.

Totally agree. For this reason, plus the reason that they’re not “on the ground”, I would never map a highway=proposed. But I’m not going to tell others how to map; if they want to do the work to keep track of live/dead proposals, that’s their problem, not mine. > tiger seems to have spots where there are streets that developers planned > but never built. i see them from time to time.
