[Talk-GB] mapbox mapping activity [2nd iteration]

[Sonya Khilchyk]

Hi, Rob

Our data team now works with the park boundaries you sent. We try to solve
road gaps issues permanently as much as capacity allows us. Also we plan to
resolve some road issues with paths, running tracks, etc in March. In
future you can submit feedback via Improve this Map.

Thanks for your feedback!

Cheers,
Member of Mapbox team, Sonya
