Just some more feedback on the idea of a TIGER rural-residential challenge based on cleanup I've done throughout much of Vermont:
- Most of the roads in rural areas should have their highway= changed to something other than residential. (well known issue). - Surface tags would be GREAT! I've added surface tags to most roads in Vermont, but have not quite gotten to all of them yet. - At least here in Vermont, "private road" means that the ownership and maintenance of the road is the responsibility of the resident[s], not that "access=private". We have many private roads due to low densities of residences and Towns generally won't take over ownership/maintenance unless there are at least 3 residences and the proposal passes a public vote. The TIGER import mistakenly tagged many private-roads as "access=private". It would be great to remove this tag if it hasn't been added by a person. If there is any way to help out with this effort I'd love to lend a hand.
