Sustrans Millennium Mileposts

Sustrans commissioned 'Millennium Mileposts' across the country as part of early work on the National Cycle Network in the UK.

Around 2009 Sustrans GIS department permitted OSM to have the list of their Millennium Mileposts (and also Artwork) that exists on the National_Cycle_Network. The full listing can be found in the table below. In 2016 they made the data available as open data (broken link, kept here for purposes of verification). Sustrans are interested in situations where OSM contributors map milepost locations more accurately than in these records. 2019 edit: Sustrans open data current list contains known milepost locations, although some have alternate MPxx ID numbers to earlier lists.

Please add links to OSM data to the table and add the Sustrans ID tag to the OSM data to make it easier to find. suggest using sustrans_ref=* as the key when tagging.

Why not add a photo too, like some of the Yorkshire and Humberside ones.

Mileposts already in OSM are tagged with ncn_milepost=* where the value is one of mills, dudgeon, mccoll or rowe. These will appear on the cycle map on zoom level 13 or higher.

In some instances it is difficult to distinguish between two or more mileposts. Blackadder can help sort these instances out from additional information he has from Sustrans
