    If it is still 'usable' by 4WD but access is restricted then it is
    still a track, just access=private. <br>
    <br>
    Where it has reduced to a path then that is what it is. You can use
    <a rel="noreferrer">was:highway=track</a> to say it was that .. should make it fairly clear
    this is an intentional change. <br>

            <pre>There are many fire trails that were closed by NSW NPWS in the late
90s/early 00s, mainly due to wilderness declarations.

They have been slowly overgrowing for many years. In some cases you can
still see the double tracks, in other cases they are just a single foot
track.

Certainly you couldn't drive a vehicle on most of them without sending a
bulldozer through first.

Anything to consider, or should I just change them to highway=path?
Perhaps with a note saying why they have been changed?
