Some maps have Sivertson Road coming all this way, rather than it being a driveway. Needs checking with county GIS, and on the ground.

appears to be matched to much older sources like the National Map Topographic and USGS Topographic layers. Literally all imagery (and LIDAR) points to that small channel being the correct one.

Tidal Road is tidal, and should be tagged as tidal, so this doesn't happen: https://www.reddit.com/r/CasualUK/comments/1r5h2f5/an_amazon_prime_driver_has_got_their_van_stuck_in/

I've written about this gate here: https://www.reddit.com/r/openstreetmap/comments/1qxa58h/how_should_this_gate_in_sheffield_be_tagged/ Here's a summary: From some photos I've seen, it looks like the gate there for vehicles, and bicycles and pedestrians need to go around it. I've seen photos of a trail around it, but also of a cycle barrier right next to the gate. Some of the photos have the gate as yellow; others grey. Seems to me that the gate could be tagged as for vehicles only, private, and usually locked. And assuming the cycle barrier is still there, add that as a separate way, with a cycle barrier node on it. The cycle barrier: barrier=cycle_barrier cycle_barrier=tilted access=no bicycle=dismount foot=designated (or perhaps just yes) The gate: barrier=gate access=private locked=yes colour=yellow

I've updated the tagging. barrier=motorcycle_barrier implies that foot is allowed and standard bicycles can get through.

We cannot use any information from Google Maps. Can we potentially use county GIS maps to confirm, if their license permits?
4~ 6 months agocommentedICT_maps
♦11,579
If the license permits... it does seem suspect that this would be the same name as the roads north and east of the stop sign.
5~ 6 months agoclosedtobych
♦421
The city (of Bainbridge Island) GIS specialist has shared data with me to help improve OSM, but I've not looked into getting proper license agreements from them. I'll need to do that. Their mapping data has this just as a driveway. This being named Wardwell is inconceivable. I wasn't suggesting that we use Google Maps information in OSM; just pointing out that there's discrepancy that's probably worth paying attention to. So... I'm going to resolve this comment. https://cityofbi.maps.arcgis.com/

I've not been here recently, but live on the island. Kitsap roads layer shows this as a public road: Latimer Avenue Northeast. It's been tagged as a driveway, and tagged access=private, after a "request from a local", according to the OSM history. Given that this road serves several properties, it doesn't make sense to me that this be tagged as a driveway. Also, unless there's a gate, there the access=private doesn't make sense either. I was actually looking at this in relation to this note https://www.openstreetmap.org/note/4116569 about the stairs that come up from the Fairy Dell trail. I've messaged the user to ask who they talked to and if they've talked to the city.
41165691~ 2 years agoopenedtobych
♦421
These steps might be public: I think they're in road parcel. I'll check.
2~ 1 year agocommentedHypsometric
♦4,452
It seems that it would be public. The steps are in an area that appears to be zoned for roads to go through one day.
3~ 8 months agocommentedtobych
♦421
Agreed. If I move the northern bit of the trail right of the property line to its west, and the southern bit north of the property line to its south, then we'll have the steps and the trail all on the ROW. One question is who owns the stairway though, if there's significant infrastructure there. I'd want to know what the condition is.
4~ 8 months agocommentedtobych
♦421
I mean, if the steps really do start on the 11808 property, and they're privately owned, but go through the ROW, things are going to get complicated. But for now I'll probably move stuff around and marking it public access but note that the steps are not maintained by Parks & Rec.
5~ 8 months agocommentedtobych
♦421
Another issue is that the "driveway" that leads to these steps is tagged as a private driveway but is in a ROW. In the OSM history of the road way, there's a note: "Removed road name as non existing, changed road type to private driveway according to local user's request #mbx_usa_editing". I'd like to know the story here. This is clearly one of those Bainbridge Island situations where a property owner is claiming public land is private, or whatever. Given this, I wouldn't be surprised if the steps do in fact start on private property. I'll ask the user who made that change what they know.
6~ 8 months agocommentedtobych
♦421
The user who tagged the "driveway", Aleksey Gorelikov is a Mapbox employee, according to his profile. Oh my, this is even more complicated.
7~ 8 months agocommenteddannmer
♦18,950
there is zero heat map activity here which suggests that it's private or doesn't exist. The nearby Fairy Dell Trail and creek don't appear to be mapped correctly. The creek isn't aligned with 3D elevation data and shows heavy heat map activity. The trail alignment suffers from similar issues, the trail isn't aligned with the heat map.

Sorry, what note?
3~ 2 years agocommentedtobych
♦421
Oh, sorry, you mean the note= tag. I'll copy it here from the way, in case it helps someone else who's on the ground. "Landowner has not given permission for this section of Egrets Way cycle path to be paved. Surface rutted and muddy. Not suitable for cycling."
4~ 9 months agocommentedaderyn
♦28
The path surface is bumpy but easy to cycle along in dry condition (most of the summer). In wet conditions (generally the winter is wet) it may well be muddy and impassable. The landowner has not given permission for this section of the path to be paved so this is not a temporary condition. I have heard that the landowner allows cattle to roam on this section. If that is the case it is possible that churned up mud that dries could make the path impassable in dry conditions.
5~ 9 months agocommentedtobych
♦421
We should probably merge these two paths into one. Then use different values for `smoothness`, `tracktype`, `mtb_scale` and even `seasonal` at different points. I'm in the US so can't do a survey myself.

I'd be interested to find out what doing a survey involves. I live locally, but have no experience of doing surveys.

Does this really not meet Genes Lane?
2~ 10 months agocommenteddannmer
♦18,950
Strava heat map indicates that the trail connects with Genes Lane, the changeset shows that gps was used to map the trail. When I map trails, I don't follow paths to roads, I just turn around and remember to map the connection later. Perhaps this mapper did the same and didn't remember to make the connection.
3~ 10 months agocommentedtobych
♦421
Sounds likely. Still, you can't beat the changeset comment: "Found a new trail system today. Very exciting." Nice.
4~ 10 months agoclosedtobych
♦421
The trail from the south does meet the road. But just before it does so, there's a chain across, with no way around it for pedestrians or bicycles. You can go under it, though, if you lift the chain over you. On the south end of this trail there's no private property sign. On the north end, looking south, there are signs reading Private Property; No Trespassing.

Could be mapped as individual natural=tree nodes if you can pick out their locations in aerials. I think there's also species=* and taxon=* etc. if you want to get fancy (I don't know the significance of these trees).
