Hi Dian,

The AWTGS page referenced isn't much use. As a trail user it doesn't tell me if 1 is easy or hard.

Searching for other references I found
https://www.nationalparks.nsw.gov.au/safety/bushwalking-safety/australian-walking-track-grading-system
https://naturetrail.com.au/australian-walking-track-grading-system/
https://www.parks.vic.gov.au/things-to-do/hiking-and-bushwalking/choose-the-right-hike/how-walking-tracks-are-rated

all of which use almost identical descriptions and symbols for grades 1 to 5. Does anyone know what the source for this is, and if we are allowed to include the descriptions verbatim in wiki.osm?

Is Pump track missing a key=value pair in the Value column? bicycle=designated by its self doesn't imply pump track.

The "Bike Lanes and Street Cycling" section is vague. What does "map according to what is on the ground, rather than relying on technical, legal definitions" mean? Isn't what is signposted on the ground what the legal definition is? Given that many signposted bike lanes and trails in Australia are not fit for purpose (eg they have parked cars in them or cyclist dismount signs) I don't know how they can be tagged in a consistent and useful manner.

The rest of the page looks good.

Hello,

The sixth subpage of the Australian Tagging Guidelines: https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Australian_Tagging_Guidelines/Cycling_and_Foot_Paths is ready for review.

This page took a significant amount of effort, as there is ongoing discussions, conflicting global guidelines, and the previous content was quite out of date. This is also likely to be the subpage with the most controversy, so I would strongly encourage contributions and feedback from all.

Please, as always, don't be shy about providing feedback or raising concerns. There are only one subpages to go with the Tagging Guidelines pages: Utilities and Infrastructure.

Dian
