Default FOAK: Minor roads maps online?

Newly resurfaced roads are a magnet for service providers who simply itch to dig a trench in it and then fill it in with low grade materials. Years ago in Edinburgh they relaid a cobbled side street near where I lived. Beautiful job they did. It had barely been completed when some service provider came along, dug a trench across it where it met the main road, laid their cable or whatever and re-filled the hole with tarmac.


AIUI, these days the rules have changed. Although you may
sometimes see temporary fill, everything has to be done properly,
to match the original.
