That's really cool. Can I ask how you did the symbol placement - I'm
guessing by hand?

Also, I'm intrigued by the cycling-both-ways thing. I've checked a few
of the roads in the db, and they are mostly just marked as oneway=true
- are these roads where the no entry sign says "except for cycles" or
are do they have separate contraflow cycle lanes? I don't know
Cambridge that well so I'm interested in the real world more than the
tagging.

Cheers,
Andy
