Given that the SW Coast Path relation has broken and had to be
repaired recently, I'd definitely add a new relation for the new
bit. Perhaps it makes sense to have a "super relation" for the
whole SW path made up of smaller relations, of which this can be one
alternative route (if I've understood the situation properly)?</div></blockquote><div> </div><div class="im">The section mentioned is part of the SW Coast Path so it should be relation that is part of a suggested super relation.<br>

Unless it's really obvious that the name of a particular piece of
path is "blah" (as opposed to being part or a longer route called
"blah") I'd name the relation but I wouldn't name each way "blah".
I'd imagine that most data consumers can handle named relations -

I'd thought about about trying to downloading with Josm, then copy and pasting sections of the route to a new layers then adding the relation data to this clean bit of route?<br>
