I changed West 8th South and West 20th South to highway=tertiary to get rid of secondary road spurs, those are generally to be avoided unless there's a good reason

Hello! So we don't get into an edit war here, why did you upgrade several county roads to highway=secondary? We haven't been using HFCS or other government classification systems in SD (they tend to over-classify things and then the map looks silly, I tried it in Spearfish), and generally most county roads are highway=tertiary with some exceptions. Also, I set Medary between 14 and the bypass to highway=primary because it's the "main street" for SDSU running right by the Campanile. Please let me know your thoughts.

Hello! "Future Road" is probably not the actual name of the proposed road here, I've removed the 'name' tag and changed this to highway=proposed

Is there a way to save the new configuration (currently in OSM) in a JOSM layer (or something), then revert this changeset, then when signage catches up put the saved layer back? Just trying to work smarter, not harder here.

Hello! The roads on the southwest side of Aurora were open enough for me to run on a few months ago, so I've reverted them to highway=residential. I don't think any project would have come up to close them again.

Hello! Thanks for contributing! It looks like you copy-pasted the same house multiple times. The typical process is to redraw each house with its particular shape.

Interesting! This might be better than the generic "type=route" currently in use on pretty much all the rest of these multi-state road routes. I started a forum post to see if there can be consensus to do this nationwide.

What does the relation type "superroute" accomplish?

Hello! The semicolon-separated names mean the road has two names, one on each side.

So I have connections with SD Game and Fish, and DC Booth really isn't a production hatchery anymore. Sure, they have some stocking work (mainly to avoid federal sequestration) but the primary purpose of this facility is for education and tourism. The real aquaculture work is done at McNenny west of town. That's why I tagged it as an aquarium, since the primary purpose is to showcase the fish, despite whatever lies the Booth Society tells to gain funding.

So the only ones we recognize at travelmapping.net are US 30 Fremont, US 20 SSC (as a continuation of the Iowa one), NE 2 GI, and NE 2/US 75 in Neb City. Last time I looked there was enough signage to keep the US 30 one in Fremont but they could have removed more this year that I'm not aware of.

As far as I remember there was only one sign at Bell and 23rd, and it's hard to infer a route relation from one sign. I can add it back in if you'd like.

Hey, just as a heads up, we came to an agreement that the US:CO:Weld network was only in place for roads that had pentagonal signs: network=US:CO:Weld, various forum discussions

Why are the name fields getting removed?

Thanks! Missing the plain dirt areas out by Mirror (no good tag) and I still haven't got around to doing the landuse out by Cox.

174608641

revert this please

174608641

exactly, subareas are basically useless

West of US 85 it's a bit confusing too, just updated that as well: changeset/174469148

168584782

Note that the county road relations were determined to only be needed where the pentagon signs are (mainly along I-25) since everything else is streetblades. See network=US:CO:Weld which I updated to reflect the discussion.

So when I was investigating the area, I noticed that the addresses along that road were all "14th Street" so that's what I set the 'name' as. Did some further investigation this morning and found streetblade signage for County Road 14 1/2 so I added a segment after the last driveway: changeset/174463722
