<DIV>Hi All,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I asked this question of an experienced mapper not long after I joined OSM and although I have followed his advice, it's a little niggle that won't go away!</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>My nearby parks and recreation grounds have standard asphalt, roughly two person wide, footpaths criss-crossing them.</DIV>
<DIV>There are no signs at the entrances to the land, just wrought iron gates on the boundary.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>One park has a signed cycleway passing through it - no problem with that.</DIV>
<DIV>You wouldn't really do serious cycling on the other paths - it's a park with mums and their prams - but there's nowt to say you shouldn't. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I struggle with 'public footpath'. One of these goes through the park and is signed at each end - no problem with that either. </DIV>
<DIV>In order to alter or otherwise interfere with a 'public footpath' I believe there has to be public consultation, presumably a legal requirement? </DIV>
<DIV>The other unsigned paths within the park can be altered with no notice given. Although public in that every Tom, Dick or Harriet can use them, aren't they really 'permissive'?</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>How do I tag these paths? </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
