I haven't seen any of the data for any place that I'm personally
familiar with. I have, however, seen all the different things that
were to be surveyed, and a lot of it is exactly the kind of thing that
we'd normally collect. Some of the things that would be useful but is
generally unsurveyed in OSM - such as lighting status of paths, or
widths of cycle lanes - would be quite interesting to add into OSM.

I'd expect the DfT data to have stuff we have, have stuff we don't,
and to miss out stuff we have too!

Cheers,
