Comment from trigpoint
Is http://www.openstreetmap.org/way/5061508 really named "A23 Slip Road"?
I somehow doubt it.
Please can you explain this change? -
Comment from soemisch
We want to display the routes of services in a map. So we use the data of NaPTAN, in order to find the position of a stop point, thats often not correctly. NaPTAN describe the position with the additional tag "street name".Please have a look at NaPTAN.
We are experimenting. This issue is under construction. I will inform you, when we closed.Kind Regards, Lars

Comment from chillly
NaPTAN street names are often unreliable. I have checked about 2000 UK stops by surveying them and I know you should not trust NaPTAN. I would need to see a road sign with 'A23 slip road' on it to use that name in OSM.

Comment from SK53
I would back chillly up here: when there is no street name some local authorities maintaining NaPTAN data seem to feel that this field must be filled even when there is no corresponding actual name. In these cases the relevant tag to use is description. If a NaPTAN name does not correspond to one in OSGB Locator then it is advisable to be careful (see OSL Musical Chairs for this data). ALWAYS use two (independent) sources for this kind of edit.
