Hello pidugu konda reddy,
Thank you for your contribution to OSM,
I noticed that you changed the classification of several existing streets to highway=construction in the following changesets:
changeset/175266163
changeset/175267993
changeset/175266434
changeset/175265865
changeset/175264459
By changing the classification to construction alone, many roads appear “floating” on the map without a defined road type. This can negatively affect routing, map rendering, and overall data quality.
According to OSM guidelines.
highway=construction
The correct way to map a road under construction or a future road is to use:
highway=construction together with construction=* (where * describes the type of road being built, e.g., construction=primary, construction=residential, etc.).
Also, I could not find any reliable sources or public documentation (e.g., local news or municipal announcements) justifying a long-term closure or full reconstruction of these roads.
Here are some of the affected streets for reference:
way/1040624349/history
way/222087274/history
way/624531373/history
way/903284498/history
way/1033971671/history
Could you please provide the sources or reasoning behind these edits and correct them if necessary?
Best regards,
Eslam Elsayed

Hello Ayumu "Osaka" Kasuga,
I noticed that you changed the classification for some streets in the following changesets:
changeset/160960328
changeset/160959539
One of the changes involved shifting the classification of this road from "Primary" to "Motorway" However, this classification does not seem to be suitable for the road network.
Could you please provide the sources or reasoning behind these edits?
Here’s the link to the streets for reference:
way/728130096/history
way/1050764767/history
Best regards,

Hello, pidugu konda reddy;
I noticed you reverted my edit and changed the value of the oneway tag from "yes" to "-1"
Example: https://osmlab.github.io/osm-deep-history/#/way/557409331
and added "oneway=-1" to some streets
For Example:
way/33903981
way/652131228
Please keep in mind that when you added the oneway tag It better be (yes), and you can check the OpenStreetMap wiki
oneway=-1
