[OSM-Talk-ZA] Road network improvements in South Africa

[Gerhardus Geldenhuis]

The other worthwhile thing to double check is alignment. I have seen that
it can sometimes be of especially for roads mapped very early on in OSMs
existence. The resolution of curves can sometimes be a bit low which does
not make for the smoothest of curves and would be another useful bit to
improve.
