Hi Nick, my name is Robby and I am involved with OSM through a website called https://wandrer.earth

The goal of Wandrer is to ride a bicycle on every street in Chicago. Completion is tracked using a combination of GPS activities (via Strava) and OSM data.

The global Wandrer map pulls fresh data from OSM on a quarterly basis. We are then stuck with the data for the next three months.

The micromapping you are doing is very cool but I'm noticing lots of new ways with Feature Type: Path and Allowed Access: bicycle=yes that may be inaccurately labeled.

Looking at Street View these appear to be foot paths leading to private residences behind locked gates. 

Would it be possible for you to help us fix these (and any other cases like this in the Chicago area) before the next Wandrer map update on April 28? Thanks so much and let me know if you have any questions.

Robby
