Re: [talk-au] Cycling on Victorian paths

Hi all, I’m a mapper and a transport planner who deals a lot with this issue in my work. To clarify, VicPol are not the authority on what is or isn’t permitted on a path. What is signed ‘on the ground’ and in the legislation (Victorian Road Rules and Road Management Act) is what counts. Moreover,

[talk-au] Mapping hook turns for bicycles

Hi all, An increasingly common feature at intersections in Melbourne is installing facilities specifically for people riding bikes to be able to do a hook turn (I.e. waiting to the left side of the road before waiting for a green signal on the perpendicular road). Here is an example:

[talk-au] Access tagging for dogs

Hi all, I am looking at a few areas in parks across Melbourne where dogs are prohibited (e.g. through this gate to Kew Billabong: https://www.openstreetmap.org/node/1072284074) I’ve tried looking in a few places for guidance, but there isn’t anything other than this abandoned tagging schema

Re: [talk-au] poor business listing edits

[talk-au] Tagging dog off-lead areas

Hi all, I have been considering how to tag parks that allow dogs to be off-lead. I’ve had a look through the discussion on a proposed feature on OSM Wiki but there doesn’t appear to be a useful consensus https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Talk:Proposed_features/Key:Dog. Does anyone have

[talk-au] Issues with a user putting back incorrect tags

Hi all, I am seeking advice on how to proceed with an issue around Melbourne and Victoria regarding tagging of abandoned/disused railway stations and railways. The Outer Circle Line is a railway that has been almost entirely ripped up and abandoned. The former track and its stations were
