Roundabout works only partially

Postby top_gun_de » Tue Apr 10, 2012 3:31 pm

Hi,

I am still working on two roundabouts in my area of responsibility, both show a similar problem:

In one direction, the directions include the number of the exit, in another direction, the directions show only the roundabout-sign without a number, and the spoken directions stop in mid-sentence.

I have linked the options for one roundabout.

First the non-working route:

https://world.waze.com/editor/?zoom=6&l ... ,151901470

I approach the roundabout from the north and leave it in the south towards "Göttinger Straße". Waze shows the roundabout-sign without a number, the german directions are "Beim nächsten Kreisverkehr" and stop.

The working route:

https://world.waze.com/editor/?zoom=6&l ... ,148881182

When I approach from the south and leave in the north, I get the correct display with the exit number 3, and the spoken directions are complete: "Beim Kreisverkehr nehmen Sie die 3. Ausfahrt".

I have deleted and recreated the roundabout, no improvement.

I have also modified the exit in the south to create a sharper angle. This is the current design. No improvement.

The current state is from March 21st, one day before the last map-freeze. The current layout is live, the new segment at the exit was covered with dots when I drove it on monday evening.

What else can I do? I am sort of lost.

Best regards,

Detlev

In my experience, the '0th exit' problem is almost always caused by an invisible node left over from an earlier roundabout. You can only find these in old Cartouche by randomly clicking on the map.

I found this one near the centre: https://world.waze.com/cartouche_old/?z ... =155048501 - deleting it may well fix the routing for this junction, though there may be others elsewhere.

Thanks, I found the mentioned orphan centre-node and removed it, and to make sure I completely remade the roundabout.

This worked on the first one.

However, I found no such node on the second - southern - roundabout. It still does not work, and has even worsened. I read somewhere that the voicedirections have issues with shallow angles, and rebuilt one lane with a steeper angle. Now, neither direction of the round-about gives correct spoken directions.

I am completely lost on the second one - the updated permalink follows:

Any help would be gladly appreciated.

Best regards,

Detlev
