Hi
I know this has been discussed before , but recent edits by user:
abc26324 prompts me to ask/verify again the point of road relations
in the UK. Example:
http://www.openstreetmap.org/relation/103301#map=10/51.2112/-2.5578
Route relations are meant to represent, err... routes taken by people
that transverse multiple different ways; such as bus cycle etc & not
just a 'collection' of things, especially when they can easily be
collated/extracted from the ref on the actual way.
I notice even the M4/M5 have one apiece. This has lead to tag
duplication which can never be a good thing.
Are there any roads in GB where references are shared? If not, I see
no reason for their existence.
I have noticed that he is at it again and has not responded to either
my comment with regards to the A50, or chillly's comments with regard
to the A161.
This time he has added a relation for the bits of the A1 that are not
A1(M), there is already an A1 relation. I again am not sure why we need
such relations, and the history is too big to view.delete
The author has not responded, so I have deleted the route relation for
A161. I will use changeset comments on any more that I find in the UK to
discuss why they are there - my expectation would be to delete any
others but only after attempting to engage the author.
