Just to add to Andy's post: priority 3 routes are generally bus routes; going back over roads already surveyed in this exercise, armed with the data from Naptan cleared up a lot of no-name roads as well; we even organised an impromptu tutorial and editing session where two new mappers got going.

Could you explain what your base information was, how you got hold of it and on what license?


Thanks,

The West Mids folks have been busy over the last few days adding all the Birmingham gritting routes to OSM. We'll be adding the other areas of the
west mids as we get them as well as the location of all the grit bins.

You can see the completed mapping for Birmingham on the mappa-mercia website
here:

"http://mappa-mercia.org/gritting-map.shtml?zoom=11&lat=52.48004&lon=-1.8851
7&layers=BT"

BCC prioritises the gritting routes as 1, 2 or 3. Not all councils appear to provide their priority but basically in Birmingham the priority 1 routes are principle highways (trunk), most priority 2 are other primary or secondary
routes so it's not too difficult to see a likely priority trend.

With some more snow due in the midlands on Wednesday it's a timely bit of
work. To follow activity subscribe to the
