[Talk-GB] Improving gate data

[Jon Pennycook]

I suspect the barriers that are particularly interesting are the ones that
block a certain class of user that would be allowed either side of the
barrier, eg a bollard or concrete block on a residential road would prevent
cars but not pedestrians for example, even though cars are allowed on
either side. In the case of the concrete block, it would matter if there
was a gap allowing horses and cyclists, or if it extended across the whole
road only leaving access to the pavement, in which case cycles and horses
would not be able to pass.
