I’ve just uploaded a changeset deleting the overlapping ways for the

Thanks Mark. That is quite a bit of work.
I would have done it later in a week or two, just to make certain there
were no objections.
I started the Grand Cliff Top Walk relation so as to get it on
https://hiking.waymarkedtrails.org/#route?id=17595958&type=relation&map=15.0/-33.7223/150.3398
then I came across the overlapping ways ...
My thoughts are ...
You have to be very careful with using 'route signs' to name paths.
Without knowledge the path name may not be the route name, so I would
not tag the path with the name unless I could verified it.

In the Blue Mountains some paths have more than one OSM way - each
with different 'name', at least some of these are routes that may,
I repeat may, not be the true path name.
Example
Way 1199677262 - 'Grand Clifftop Walk'
Way 22761613 - 'Overcliff Track' Note NPWS route
'Overcliff-Undercliff track' .. the over cliff track is mapped
separately in OSM. A route relation could be made with both these
tracks and a website link..
Just had a look at this one - YUK! The new 'Grand Clifftop Walk' way
overlapping the existing way should go. New relation should be made
for the route. There are some sections that would keep the name -
the section from Golf Links Lookout to near Carleton Road was given
that name back in the ?1990s? (I remember seeing the name in the mid
90s) - the track was meant to be extended further to Sublime Point
but this never happened.
The error message I got from JOSM was some 50 overlayed ways .. that
may not be all of them.
