Hello all!

I'm Bella, a data analyst from Citymapper. As part of our efforts to
increase localisation and improve routing of our app, we've been
incrementally adding sheltered walkway data into OSM. That data is from the
Land Transport Authority (LTA) Data Mall, titled 'Covered Linkway
<https://datamall.lta.gov.sg/content/datamall/en/static-data.html>', and
was last updated on March 2022. Our cleaned* data include adding new
footways and adding the covered tag, or adding the covered tag to existing
footways.

You can read more about our project here, and email me at
bella at citymapper.com for any additional questions. Thank you!

*cleaned data: we compared the LTA government data against OSM's existing
data to find covered footways that haven't been added yet.

Much appreciated,
Bella
