"All canals have towpaths" No. Some canals are now disused so sections of the towpath are gone (now private land/buildings etc.), some canals aren't for navigation/boats (I know of one used to supply a fountain by Hampton Court Palace and the man-made river/canal runs for several miles).
I think locks were changed to nodes rather than ways so the gate was actually marked and so this was helpful on those staircase locks that have more than one gate. I think there is someone on OSM who lives on a canal boat, or does quite a bit of canal boating. I seem to remember them providing some input into discussions, but can't remember who they are. -- Gregory [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.livingwithdragons.com
