I've made comments about duplicated highways on 3 or 4 other changesets of yours.

Hi, Could you please read my comment above? You will see that you mapped a new highway on top of an existing highway; this could lead to disruption of routing on maps derived from OSM data. OSM highway classification guidelines do not allow for highways to be mapped on top of each other on the same layer.

You should not map any features on top of existing features. Rather if a feature, including a highway, needs amending/correcting, the amendment/correction should, if possible, be done to the existing feature, thus the feature's history is maintained in the OSM database. If this method cannot be done, then as an alternative method, the existing feature should be removed and the new feature mapped.

I have reverted or removed several highways that you have duplicated in this manner. There are 3 or 4 more highways you've duplicated that I've not yet sorted out.

Regards Bernard.

Duplicated highway Way: 1533018851 removed. it could cause disruption to routing.

Way: Pakridyal - Sahasralingam Rd (1533018850) removed as it duplicates the line of an existing highway. Thus it could have caused disruption to routing.

Please see the comment on the previous changeset.

Hi, Welcome to OpenStreetMap.

It is not allowed to use information from Google Maps; please see here:- http://tiny.cc/3mt5101

It would be best to revert the data you've added ASAP. If you need help doing this? Please just ask by commenting below.

Regards Bernard.

Way: Madhuban - Sahasralingam Rd (1533014411) is duplication, removed, tags added to the existing highway.

Your route relations are not needed, the tags can be added to the highway.

Hi, Welcome to OpenStreetMap.

You are adding lots of duplicated highways which causes disruption to routing. You have warnings about crossing highways (see above), this also disrupts routing.

If a highway needs correcting, please make the correction to the existing highway; don't just map a new highway on top.

I'm removing some of the duplications that I can see.

Regards Bernard.

Hi, Don't forget that will go on the best route, not neccessarily on the desired route. Where/what is the problem you encounter?

I've added bicycle=yes to the two bollards at the river.

184754581

Hi, bicycle=yes is correct on the service road, I also added it to two bollards.

184495885

Way: 1531767298 removed it's a duplicated highway disrupting routing.

184598281

With reference to the definitive map this is a public footpath not a cycleway.

184417581

You added the fiction. You should have removed it!

184472264

Way: 1531620379 in part was on top of an existing highway, I've removed the duplication as it could disrupt routing.

184428639

OK, thanks for removing it.
Regards Bernard

These highways (unjoined to any network) look to be fictional. Can you give a reason for mapping them? If not, they ought to be removed.

184415239

Hi, Welcome to OpenStreetMap.

Your new road Way: 1186092966 duplicates an existing highway; this duplication could cause disruption to routing. Thus I've remomed it. Any corrections should be made to existing features where possible.

Regards Bernard.

You are still duplicating highways, which then disrupts routing. Your relation is also meaningless. I've removed Way: Salemppur - Panapur Rd (1531159704) and the relation.

184292415

Several fictional highways are removed
