XML Parsing error | OSM Script Android

After executing the code below I receive an error stating "Illegal character is query at index 95: http://ift.tt/1wclBZ6 (around:40,54.95092211711581,-7.721371648195827) ["highway"] ["maxspeed"]; ( ._; >; ); out;"

Could anyone have a look at this and offer any advice?

Thanks.

XML File I'm trying to parse:

  <way id="64273241">
    <nd ref="768053039"/>
    <nd ref="1922602861"/>
    <nd ref="1922622063"/>
    <nd ref="795319854"/>
    <nd ref="795320324"/>
    <tag k="highway" v="secondary"/>
    <tag k="maxspeed" v="60"/>
    <tag k="name" v="Port Road"/>
    <tag k="oneway" v="no"/>
    <tag k="ref" v="R229"/>
  </way>
