Hello.
In this changeset, you deleted the bridleway in Tilford across the weir (https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/234353577/history and https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/234353571/history) and marked the narrow pavement alongside Tilford Street/Tilford Road as a cyclepath (bicycle=yes). I've restored the bridleway (I used the part to the west of the weir today, and there are signs at either end of the bridleway), and added bicycle=no to the narrow pavement (there were no signs on the pavement today to allow cycling).Jon

Thanks for the corrections Jon, I am not as familiar with that area and was going based on maps as I was trying to follow the new surrey cycle routes. If as you say the footpath is in fact a pavement it should be changed to sidewalk?

Hello.
When adding new cycle routes to OSM, I always make sure that I perform a detailed on-site survey first, where I record data on surface/tracktype, right of way designation if applicable, way type, speed limits, etc. This is particularly important if the source map has restrictive copyright (see https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/copyright#Propriety_data).
The footway has been marked as footway=sidewalk. I also reconnected another bridleway in Tilford to the road which had been trucated at the footpath, preventing onward routing.
As the Surrey Hills routes are promoted as "off-road" and involve a lot of dirt tracks, I've changed route=bicycle to route=mtb. This parallels the equivalent off-road routes in North Hampshire, including some of the "Cycling Discoveries in and around North Hampshire" routes. The danger is that route planners will send road cyclists down dirt tracks if the tracks have an RCN relation.
