Thanks for that information and for that useful looking website that shows the South Downs Way. Sorry to have upset your day!

Hi Gavin
Your prompting has made me investigate. On the software I use (Go Map on iPad) there seems to be no road type as 'proposed road' or even 'road under construction', so I easily changed its name to 'Proposed Road' from 'Future Road', which sounds better anyway - thank you. I then went to the OpenStreetMap website on my PC and discovered I could change the road type to 'Road Closed' which seems to fit in better, so I changed it to that. I couldn't find a 'proposed road' or 'road under construction' road type on OpenStreetMap either.

Sorry for not doing as you request. I was mainly adding nodes to improve curves which otherwise only had a series of long straight lines and also repositioning as required to improve accuracy.
