What do you mean by "maintenance" here? It could mean many things:
o Making sure that the route in OSM still matches the route on the
ground (diversions etc.).
o Making sure that the route on the ground is actually navigable (e.g. a
section of a walking route near me has suffered a landslip).
o Making sure that the route markers on the ground are mapped in OSM
(and updating OSM where they have disappeared)
o Making sure that the route is still contiguous in OSM (sometimes if
someone deletes and remaps an area they'll forget to readd a way to the
route)
Best Regards,
Andy
