The record behind this

Christchurch City Council’s open data, the Cycleway layer’s MajorCyclewayName is the record’s own attribution. The status and the lengths are the asset register’s; a named route is a spine the programme still extends. The whole network is drawn at /cycleways, and live on the map’s cycleway layer.
