[OSM-newbies] Help splitting road

[Dave F.]

Hi Clifford

Two ways:

1. (easier)
Click on either ways so they're highlighted.
Click & hold on the node at the intersection point.
Drag it to it's correct location

2. (a bit more trickier, but maybe the best way to do it)
Click on the 'North' way so it's highlighted.
Click on the node where it connects to the 'N.E.' way.
Press the delete key. This should erase the last segment & allow you to 
place a new segment to join the 'N.E.'
Click on the 'N.E.' at the required location.
