Re: [Talk-GB] Road closures/changes during Covid19
Good idea. I know that https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/165405326 in Brighton has been temporarily closed (in reality and in OSM).

Re: [Talk-GB] Road closures/changes during Covid19
Hi Yes a very good idea. I'm in North West England - the main driver in this area is Manchester. I have seen social media and news outlets showing photos of Deansgate, Manchester with expanded pedestrian areas and expanded cycle lanes; motor vehicles removed - but I don't know if there are delivery exceptions. This has been an aspiration for several years so it may become permanent. I can't travel to survey this. I have seen no mentions of expanded bicycle /pedestrian areas in Chorley or Preston. If a table in a wiki page was created iy region/alphabetic town - we could pool our knowledge and plan survey trips. Information saying no change is also helpful.

[Talk-GB] Road closures/changes during Covid19
Hi all, How are you reflecting current road changes in OpenStreetMap? I am aware that some cities are closing a few roads to motor traffic and installing additional cycle infrastructure. I'm not sure how permanent this is going to be, but it certainly feels like it will last a few months. Is it worth setting up a coordinated approach to mapping these changes? We can set up a wiki page with a table of who is contributing in each city, where data is available, and what tags we want to use. Let me know what you think.
