<p class=MsoPlainText><font size=2 face="Courier New"><span lang=EN-GB

<p class=MsoPlainText><font size=2 face="Courier New"><span lang=EN-GB
style='font-size:10.0pt'>Yup, after your maps appeared I was motivated to tag
more the network, and I then spent some happy hours today pushing N1 further
north from <st1:place w:st="on">Ipswich</st1:place>, cycling 40 miles in the process;
OSM has a lot to answer for :) I will be pushing N51 west next and be tagging both
N1 and N51 through Felixstowe when I meet the local Sustrans people on Monday evening.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><font size=2 face="Courier New"><span lang=EN-GB
style='font-size:10.0pt'><o:p> </o:p></span></font></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><font size=2 face="Courier New"><span lang=EN-GB
style='font-size:10.0pt'>As I mentioned earlier, I have already discussed OSM
with the IT guys from Sustrans (at Glastonbury) and they are interested; we will
both be at the Big Green Gathering next week (I will be showing OSM as part of the
‘Transport Action’ tent) and will show them the progress we have
made in the mean time which is considerable! What we really need now is for Sustrans
to promote OSM to their members, many of whom will already have GPX data for
routes and will be happy for an excuse to get on their bikes. Updating the map
each week is a key motivator, keep it up.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><font size=2 face="Courier New"><span lang=EN-GB
style='font-size:10.0pt'><o:p> </o:p></span></font></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><font size=2 face="Courier New"><span lang=EN-GB
style='font-size:10.0pt'>In the mean time, it would be great if other people
can get started on adding the Sustrans routes in their areas. Btw, as you
survey the Sustrans routes do take pictures and add then to the ‘ncn’
Flickr Group which is very lively.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<p class=MsoPlainText><font size=2 face="Courier New"><span lang=EN-GB
style='font-size:10.0pt'>A few comments about the rendering; it is now much much
better, thanks. Would it now make sense to also tone down the NCN and Local
cycle routes as well; the bright red and bright blue now seem a bit OTT? Also,
would it be possible to render the cycle routes using normal black casing and a
body of the appropriate colour rather than the wide overlay. The national
routes would then be rendered a lot link the primary network and local routes
in a blue like the motorway network (btw, blue is the colour the council use
locally for signed cycle route, I think it is the right colour to use). Ordinary
roads would be white (as they are) and major roads grey.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><font size=2 face="Courier New"><span lang=EN-GB
style='font-size:10.0pt'><o:p> </o:p></span></font></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><font size=2 face="Courier New"><span lang=EN-GB
style='font-size:10.0pt'>In time it would be great to use coloured casing
colour to indicate cycle lanes as they do on the TfL cycle maps, which are
probably the ones to emulate. Go to <a href="http://www.tfl.gov.uk/">www.tfl.gov.uk</a>
and click on ‘advanced options’ for the journey planner and select ‘cycle’
and give it a route request. You end up with an excellent .pdf cycle map
showing your route. Notice the blue casing for cycle facilities (sometimes only
on a single side of the road), and also the yellow body for roads ‘recommended
by cyclists’.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
