Live and recent posts from across the Fediverse tagged #freedomofinformation, aggregated by home.social.

  1. Latest #Ramblers magazine has an item on the number of stiles on #PublicRightsOfWay in England and Wales. They used #FreedomofInformation requests, presumably from each Highway Authority, for the data. Grand total comes to around 140,000, or around 1 per mile of PRoW.

    #OpenStreetMap has just over 82,000 as of today (#OverpassTurbo query: overpass-turbo.eu/s/2cFH). Not all of these will be on public rights of way, but between 50 and 60% of the total isn't bad. (Wales only represents ~5-6%).
