Hi Ian
It's always useful if you post a link to your edits so others can have a
clearer understanding.
I am updating a route relation and have some questions:
The route (route = mtb) is continuous and I have positioned the ways
correctly in the relation so there are no "gaps" in the ordering.
However some complicating factors exist. There are some "spurs" or
sidetracks that come off the main trail to access camp sites and from
time to time temporary diversions are in place for the trail due to
logging, maintenance, mining activity.
1) Should the spurs mapped with the same relation, and if so where
should they be positioned in the relation. At present I have them at
the final positions to avoid creating gaps. Is that common practice?
Not sure if you're in New Zealand, but In the UK we have National Cycle
Networks (NCN) routes. Ways to get to these are often signed as links to
the route & labelled with the ref. number in brackets. I added a note
tag for clarity.

you could have something similar?
2) What is the suggested practice to maptemporary diversions? I am
conscious of not wanting to map for the renderer, but want to indicate
the temporary nature of the diversion.
Some options I have considered
a) Access = no on the closed ways and retain the existing route
relation (e.g. "Trail X") and add the exiting route relation added to
the temporary diversions. If this is the case where should these
additions be positioned/ordered in the relation.
b) Access = no on the closed ways, and add a new route relation
(e.g. "Trail X -Temp Diversion") to the temporary diversions.
c) Remove the existing relation from the closed ways, and add them
to the temporary diversions, then when the diversion is no longer in
place undo this change.
I'd go for b), but most important is to remember to change back after.
