Hi,

Easier than editing the OSM I think!

Ha Ha, and it actually works !

I edited the osm, loaded it into JOSM and tried to upload it, but it would not upload because it said there were no changes DOH!

Thanks, Ian

It's rare that tags on nodes that are part of ways are useful, and it's certainly pointless/wrong to tag them as linear features. (i.e. you can tag them as roundabouts, and amenities (although they would normally be on nodes separate to the way) 

In JOSM, you could do a search for "highway:", which should pick up all nodes, segments and ways with a highway tag. Then use the selection palette, to restrict the selection to just nodes. Finally use the tag editor to delete the stray tags.  

Easier than editing the OSM I think!
