There's a similar issue where the NCN signage hasn't gone up yet, but 
routes appear on Sustrans' OS-derived maps and on recent OS maps.  Where 
these have been tagged locally I've given previous mappers the benefit 
of the doubt and assumed that an appropriate source for such cycle 
routes was available (i.e. "someone who knows" says that it runs from X 
to Y along Z, without resorting to pointing at an OS map in the 
process).  Presumably at the very least a source for the tag is needed?

Cheers,
Andy
