Gatwick Airport - South Terminal

Hi UK OSM Community!
I hope everyone is doing great!
I have a question regarding Gatwick Airport, the South Terminal.
I have noticed that there are some disconnected ways along Westway, more specifically leading to the payment gantries. As these ways are one way, and stop at a dead-end, they are not considered for Routing.
My question is, was this done by design? Can I go ahead and correct Westway so that routing can take place there?
Thanks in advance!
Keep well!

Looks like an omission not connecting the way from the payment points to the other side of what I presume to be a building=roof plus layer=1 rather than building=yes.

I agree, there is some mapillary that we can use to validate the building update too.

Great, add maxheight=2.7 m to the underpass sections also (don’t know if for UK you need to add the metric suffix or if it’s general that metric is assumed when not specified).

I think “metric” is generally assumed in OSM in general unless otherwise stated.

well noticed, as it wasn’t fixed yet i’ve fixed and done some small updates in Changeset: 151003659 | OpenStreetMap :+1:
