I got the impression of them intending to add an "AM grid" layer to WME to where you simply "checked" which grids you wanted and hit submit, which would then generate a canned request to whomever handles AM area changes. This would also deal with the CM border issues as we could simply fill in the gaps ourselves.

Hi,

Silly question, maybe, but how does one become a "Country Editor"?

Hi All,

The last few days I've been upgrading the A47 from Peterborough though Norwich to Gt Yarmouth to Major highway as it's a Trunk road.

I then carried on to doing the A12 to Lowestoft, so after many miles of edits and maybe 100 roundabouts I get to within a mile or two of the end of the trunk road in Lowestoft's Town centre and despite being a country manager I have no permissions

Can some of the other country managers have a look to see if they have the same problem?

You'll see where I ran out of permission as the Major Highway abruptly ends!

Hmmm, not really keen to take it on as AM as I don't think anyone has ever done an edit there! :shock:

Well the Trunk road (Major Highway) of the A12 to where is stops being a trunk road is now done in Lowestoft.

I ended up doing it in Cartouche, I'd forgotten how slow it is ...

I also not that the local AM (xiano) seems to have had an accident (or two) with the "select entire Street" button in Papyrus as LOTS of roads including one ways streets have been changed to two way. Even the Y shaped approaches to roundabouts are two way. He doesn't seem to have named anything as Lowestoft or any street names though.

I suspect navigation would be impossible!

All the Lowestoft edits look like 27 Nov 2011

Grimsby/Cleethorpes have the same problem, but only for connectivity, I can edit the roads, but not turn restrictions.

You make it sound like Waze is some sort of addictive drug :shock:
