Clifford Park Road (note: not Drive) is shown on old Melway editions but may not exist any longer (i.e. may be overgrown)

The track is set to Tracktype= Grade5, there does appear to be a gap in foliage and a single GPX track to your note. I have altered the name as you suggested but it probably is best not to have it named as it doesn't appear in vicmap. Would you be happy to have it set to old_name ? if so, please reopen this.

Hello, do you meant the unamed road or the park?
3~ 11 days agocommentedAlan Thomas

The note is referring to the road reserve shown on the Vicmap Property overlay layer in the iD editor. Having looked at a number of other contributors' map notes since posting this one, I am yet to see a note that would require a field survey to resolve. I wouldn't mind if this note was marked resolved, since it would take some effort to do so. I will manage to get out here at some point to investigate the situation for myself.

What's "Kirkbrae"?
3~ 14 days agocommentedAlan Thomas
♦30
It is an aged care facility: https://www.kirkbrae.org.au/ I left the note because I was undertaking an unrelated mapping task and noticed that this facility was not mapped, but did not want to get distracted trying to ascertain the precise boundary of the Kirkbrae facility or its proper name.

The park feature encroaches considerably into private land parcels (see Vicmap Property overlay in iD editor). Needs field survey to confirm if this actually matches the situation on the ground.

Having observed the site, there is a deep gully at the back of these properties. I don't think there is any point (or even real possibility) of further clarifying the boundary here.

Could you please provide more information? Blocking traffic to which direction? It seems that one can get through through 2 ways. Also, do you know which type/owners of vehicles are getting allowed through? How many bollards?
3~ 3 months agocommentedPakenhamin
♦2,715
The top of the T is clear. It is turning traffic that is blocked. Pedestrians and possibly two wheelers can get through. As I recall it looks like a permanent block.

Field survey: There is no fence between this road reserve and the house at 17-19 Yarra St, but number 1 Vassil Ct has a gate onto this reserve and I observed the resident of that house pushing a wheelbarrow from this gate and along a well-worn path in the reserve. He said g'day and didn't question my presence there. I conclude the road reserve is not leased to the owners of 17-19 Yarra St.

Today I visited the location and was able to traverse this track from north to south. The start of the track is not at all obvious and there are some quite sketchy sections in the northern half. At all times the track remained outside the fenceline of private property. When I reached the southern end, I encountered a wooden barrier that looked like it had been constructed recently. As the path exists on the ground, it will not be removed from OSM. However, I note that it is tagged with access=no, showing it as not available for use. (Although I don't believe the track closure sign at the southern end has any legal force, it is clear the council wishes to discourage use of the track.) In addition, I have made the following changes to OSM: - Corrected the location of the track, now clearly shown as following public land - Added the wooden barrier at the southern end to the map - Mapped the extent of the Yanggai Baring Linear Park (public land) as a separate boundary from the wooded area (which represents land cover, not land tenure, and extends over public and private land) In the long run I hope the City of Manningham is able to develop a safe, level walking track along this beautiful gully so that all may enjoy it. (see also the discussion at https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/150475304)
