In some cases OSM *is* the most up to date data there is. Locally I watched as the local Sustrans ranger (I hope I've got the term correct) added NCN 150 to the map after getting home from putting up the stickers - the relation grew over the few days it took. I will be leaving the local part of the NCN 51 relation that has been reclassified for him to update as and when it gets re-stickered.
