Research direction
Start with the linked OSM Wiki activity page and the osmlint-osmium/osmlint output archives listed in the issue. Review the ten categories using iD or JOSM and the supplied imagery, then record valid OpenStreetMap fixes with the mbx_netherlands_roads hashtag; completion means the detected issues have been reviewed and valid problems corrected.
Written by the indexing model from the issue text.
Description
Background
As part of on-going work to improve the quality of OpenStreetMap data, we recently used osmlint-osmium and osmlint for detecting issues related to road network data in Netherlands. In total, there were 2432 issues detected across 10 types of linters. Here ypu can find our page in OSM Wiki
Timeframe
We plan to start reviewing detected issues by the end of next week, and editing OpenStreetMap data to fix valid issues.
Tools
We will use existing OpenStreetMap editing tools, and using the #hashtag mbx_netherlands_roads
Editor: iD or JOSM
Satellite Imagery: Bing, Maxar, Esri
Street Level Imagery: Mapillary, Other open sources if available

Also found unconnected roads. To be routable, they should be connected into the road network. You can find example here
