Hmm, I thought I'd already made a change to reflect the different locations of the temporary and new slip roads, but I can't find that so I'll have to assume I'm misremembering.

One issue: you've disconnected the entrance to the Travelodge from the slip road
22020-11-01 14:48Ben Harris Disconnecting the access road wasn't entirely accidental. The site appears to be derelict and I didn't have any evidence that it was connected to the new slip-road. On the other hand, I didn't notice any vehicular access to the site from the Bar Hill side either, and the plans and Or...

Apparently this bridge is not officially open yet (but in practice it is now being used).

Nice work - there are a few things here that I now realise I knew about but didn't notice or got wrong. For one thing, I now see that I misidentified a farm access as Scotland Drove, which explains why I couldn't find the features I was mapping in relation to.

A few minor issues I'...
22020-07-05 13:40Ben Harris 1: There were indeed some gratuitous GPS artifacts, and I've corrected those. However my photos do indicate that paths aren't entirely symmetric. For instance, the outer crossing of the Bar Hill exit has a strange cut-out from one corner that's missing from the others. I don't ...
32020-07-05 13:48Ben Harris 2: I've dealt with the divergence around Buckingway Business Park. I corrected another one yesterday.
42020-07-05 13:54Ben Harris 4: Yes; what's on the ground is currently pretty incoherent, and the map data reflects that. It might be reasonable to remap the farm entrance as a public connection between that carriageway and the cycle path, but it didn't seem appropriate to do that if that wasn't how it was meant ...
52020-07-05 14:04Ben Harris 3: It looks like you accidentally attached the boundary #114454952 to node #6876513590 in changeset #75637329. I've detached it again.

3: Oh, oops. Good investigating - when I fixed two issues with that boundary in May, but somehow missed the one I introduced myself in October (probably because I didn't look at the history of the split apart of the way).
1: I guess I must have oversimplified it in my memory - despite having l...

https://www.cambridgeshire.gov.uk/residents/travel-roads-and-parking/roads-and-pathways/heavy-or-abnormal-loads-on-the-highway has details of all restrictions in Cambridgeshire, though the maps on there probably can't be used directly as a source. (They can, I think, be used as a basis for iden...
22020-07-05 13:19Ben Harris Thanks; that allowed me to find a couple of the other boundaries of the weight limit. Even if it were OK for copyright purposes, I wouldn't trust the accuracy of that map. For one thing it says there's a 3t weight limit in central Cambridge and while there are traffic regulation orders to...

This changeset doesn't actually contain the changes it claims to, because the intended changes almost entirely replicate those in 83547340, which was uploaded 5 minutes earlier (sorry, I beat you to it :) ).
The changes that actually remain are modifications to a stream (marking part of it as ...

In this changeset you enlarged the roundabout but forgot to adjust the layout of the service road or under-construction layout cycleway to match. I've changed these to match your road alignment (without realising at the time that the road realignment was a very recent edit).

The county council website suggests that the name changes at the corner of the parish boundary near Crome Lea Business Park. I've no idea if this is an admissible source anyway.
https://www.cambridgeshire.gov.uk/residents/travel-roads-and-parking/roads-and-pathways/highway-records/
22019-10-15 10:03Ben Harris Yes; that's one of the government sources I referred to. The "Addresses" layer of My Cambridgeshire, which I think comes from the National Address Gazetteer, says that the street name precisely follows the parish boundary, so the American cemetery is on St Neots Road, Madingley, but C...

Agreed - I've added highway:construction=primary_link to indicate again the status once construction is complete.

Since you've adjusted the roundabout exit, you should probably adjust the entrance under construction to a more accurate line as well (compare this to the nearby Girton West roundabout)

12019-09-10 12:34Ben Harris Note that above I confused "inbound" and "outbound". It's the inbound carriageway that's closed, and the outbound one is being used for two-way traffic.

Hi Ben,

Please use Maxar imagery instead of Esri - much more up-to-date.
22019-06-30 22:27Ben Harris Sorry about that. Happily I don't think the difference actually affects anything in this edit: all the building sites that I tagged are still building sites in the newer imagery.

I just added a few more building traces in this area, and moved the nodes you'd added to the building outlines. You might want to check my work, as I am armchair mapping the area, and your edit says you did a gps survey.

The Citi 8 has been cut short since 03-Jan-2016 if you fancy updating the relation. It now ends at Emmanuel St and no longer goes to the station and Addenbrookes. More info at

22016-01-13 22:52Ben Harris I've roughly updated that, which turned out to be fairly easy.
