[Talk-us] migrate surface=cement to surface=concrete on USA roads and paths

[Kerry Irons]

My son in law is a civil engineer who studied concrete for his master’s degree.  He is adamant that our roads and bridges (and buildings) are made of concrete, not cement.  Despite the colloquial “cement truck” that many of us grew up with, they clearly are concrete trucks.  Virtually no public infrastructure is made of cement; it’s all concrete.

Based on my research it seems safe to retag

surface=cement

to

surface=concrete

on roads and paths in USA.

 

So I am proposing automatic, repeated bot edit doing exactly this.
