Hello Cuzi,

Thank you for your inquiry regarding the deletion of the alley segment. I wanted to explain our reasoning for this change.

Current Ground Reality: Our recent verification confirms that this location is actually a footpath, not an alley suitable for motor vehicles. (Please refer the below bing streetview link ).

Data Verification: While we acknowledge this segment has been marked as an alley for approximately 12 years, our updated resources clearly show this was likely based on outdated information.

Correct Classification: We plan to replace this with a proper footpath designation, which more accurately reflects the current ground reality and ensures safer navigation for all users. Please let us know that we can add footpath here.

Our primary goal is to maintain accurate, up-to-date mapping data that ensures safe navigation while preserving the integrity of OpenStreetMap. We're happy to provide additional information or discuss this further if needed. Thanks.
