We know that rarad74 is enforcing the living_street tagging in the region where he's most active (Bucharest area). As far as we've discussed in the community, the general consensus is to use the more internationally-aligned service road, but also follow local rules if the area is using a different scheme.

Salut,
Este deschisă Pasarela Blașcovici-Strada Gării? Știu că anul trecut a fost scandal că au închis-o fără a oferi alternativă, STPT a introdus linia 5B ca să ofere o legătură.

Când am trecut prin zonă părea că era închisă cu plasă de sârmă.

Am greșit ștergând-o?

Hello lampronessa,

I observed that in this changeset that you reclassified a lot of former service roads in Giroc to living_streets. This change sparked a discussion inside the Romanian OSM community Telegram group (https://t.me/OSMRomania/20212) and the common opinion was that living_street is not the correct tag for this situation.

"A living street or residential street is a street designed with the interests of pedestrians and cyclists in mind" ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Living_street highway=living_street ). We believe that we should only tag streets as living_street only the streets that are designed, marked and enforced as a street with pedestrian priority. This is usually seen by the use of the traffic sign "Zonă rezidențială" which limits the vehicular speeds to 20km/h and enforces priority for pedestrians.

What we see in Giroc new developments are former rural plots that were divided in multiple lots where houses or medium-density apartment buildings were build with a common access road to the main street. On those access roads, even if we see that pedestrians use the main carriageway (as they are often build without proper separation and/or sidewalks), their main purpose is still for vehicular access to the buildings. Thus, we think that the correct tag for them is highway=service (The highway=service tag denotes ways used for vehicle access to a building, parking lot, service station, business estate, beach, campsite, etc. - highway=service ).

If you agree with our designations, I can help on retagging to mitigating the issue and you can join us on the telegram group for further discussions.

Thanks.

Thanks, it looks good, you can keep one way or do another separation at the entrance, however you like.
Keep up the good work!

Hello,
Is the left turn into Coca Cola when coming from Becicherec not a legal maneuver anymore? Based on the newly drawn geometry, this turn doesn't seem to be accounted for. Also please avoid separating directions if there is no physical separation between them, this is a common rule of OSM.

Hello,
Please use the Square tool (right-click -> Square or press Q) to draw orthogonal shapes, I don't think those houses don't have 90 degree corners.

Please don't use the name tag for descriptions, it should be used only for proper names

the name tag should be used only for proper names, not for descriptions

Hello,
please be careful, you moved by mistake a node and merged it with a nearby road, see https://osmcha.org/changesets/173844032 for a visual representation of your edit. This can happen if you scroll around the map by mistake.
I fixed your mistake

Hello,

There is also a fork of the default editor which uses AI to draw buildings, you can give this tool to your class and make a much faster job: rapideditor.org

Footway bridge has been demolished in July. It was also removed from the map at that point. I reverted this changeset.

Don't add fake informations!

Thanks for the response.
Construction should have started back in 2021, but it was postponed... However, now the progress is good, the north roundabout has been opened to traffic 1 month again and the southern one since last weekend. I'm regularly using this road so I am going to constantly update it.

I reverted your changeset in 170093204

Intersection has been changed during latesst weekend as construction progressed. Why did you delete the new intersection and remap the old one?

Hello,
DN, DJ, DC are part of the official name/ref of the road and signify the institution that administrates the road.
DN=Drum Național (national road)=administered by the national road company
DJ=Drum Județean (county road)=administered by the county council
DC=Drum Comunal (municipality road)=administered by the local municipality
The name/ref of the road is official and we cannot simply change DJ to DN on the map.
Also the official name and the importance of the road are not necessary matching, it is given as a guideline on multiple OSM pages, but we practice in Romania the highway=* classification based on relative importance of the road. While the road has been build by the county council it is still of primary importance, it is an high traffic ring road of Oradea.
The unusual DJIMO ref means "Drum Județean Inelul Metropolitan Oradea" - "County Road Oradea Metropolitan Ring Road" and is seen on roadside traffic signs as you can see for example in the following picture from the local press: https://www.ebihoreanul.ro/modules/news/files/inelul-metropolitan-rutier-deschis-foto-cj-bihor-28062025_03.jpg

De ce ai șters tagurile de pe poligonul de landuse? S-a invalidat o porțiune uriașă de farmland ca urmare.
