I’ve just uploaded a changeset deleting the overlapping ways for the Grand Clifftop Walk.

There are some sections that would keep the name - the section from Golf Links Lookout to near Carleton Road was given that name back in the ?1990s? (I remember seeing the name in the mid 90s) - the track was meant to be extended further to Sublime Point but this never happened.
