OpenStreetMap India<p>For sake of trying something new, we introduced <a href="https://en.osm.town/tags/MapComplete" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>MapComplete</span></a> ( <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://en.osm.town/@MapComplete" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@<span>MapComplete</span></a></span> ) as the first editor for our 6 new mappers.

Alan Grant<p>Malaga's bus route 37 has a confusing history. The last section of the route serves a large old people's home in an isolated location high above the city, but has operated inconsistently, and was suspended for several years. </p><p>Recently the service was restored, with some changes to the original stops. Rather than relying completely on the bus operator's website, I surveyed it the old school way: ride the bus to the last stop, and walk back checking the stops.</p><p><a href="https://en.osm.town/tags/OpenStreetMap" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>OpenStreetMap</span></a> <a href="https://en.osm.town/tags/PublicTransport" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>PublicTransport</span></a></p>

I'll see if there's a way to change the key mapping.</p><p>You can also press CTRL while creating a node and then even Undo and it'll continue to snap against that now deleted segment.</p>
