If the proposal was from between 1960 and 1969, "within 25 years" would have been no later than the end of 1994, possibly as early as 1985. So on those, I would be okay with removal unless construction suddenly becomes imminent, because we are long past that point. On newer proposals, maybe a grace period of 3 months to a year after the stated construction time frame, then get rid of it. If it's built later it can always be re-added. I have a fair amount of proposed roads in my area too, but the freeways which were proposed decades ago and not only were never built, but almost certainly never will be, never were added to OSM. I probably should research the others to see what the statuses of the respective proposals are now, especially those that have been sitting there a while. -- Shawn K.
