A bunch of requests... NY/NJ area

31.) Wow. That needed some work. Take a look now. Please check all the turns, there are lots :wink:

32.) Done. You need to end the end junction node to those dead ends and courts north of Woodbridge Ave.

33.) Fixed.

34.) Updated. You can close the UR.

35.) I need to look into this one more. Something is up with that segment.

thanks again as usual. I added those nodes.
Yeah, the last one is a bit weird.

and more! :slight_smile:

  1. I don’t think the road allows a turn to turn back around to 206 S
    https://www.waze.com/editor/?zoom=8&lat=40.13636&lon=-74.70433&layers=BFTFTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTFT&segments=61538684

  2. Road doesn’t give voice directions of keep left/right. Need to match segment destination types and changed segment names to ensure all 3 are different
    https://www.waze.com/editor/?zoom=6&lat=40.19787&lon=-74.79383&layers=BFTFTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTFT&segments=42500726

  3. Same as above, different location
    https://www.waze.com/editor/?zoom=5&lat=40.8312&lon=-74.02281&layers=BFTFTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTFT&segments=61843172

  4. Similar to above: change segment name so voice directions will say ā€˜keep left/right’
    https://www.waze.com/editor/?zoom=6&lat=40.7781&lon=-74.0579&layers=BFTFTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTFT&segments=31974719

  5. I believe the main road name should be State Rte 29, not ā€˜John Fitch Way’. All segments should be changed.
    https://www.waze.com/editor/?zoom=5&lat=40.21273&lon=-74.76657&layers=BFTFTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTFT&segments=31679012

36.) LOTS of turns were messed up there and one at-grade connector wasn’t even connected. I also tweaked the geometry of some junctions to try to make sure straight/left/right is obvious in directions. Middle section of Farnsworth/Georgetown changed to no-name. Give the whole area a look to make sure I didn’t miss anything.

37.) I put in a ramp/ramp split to force directions. You can close the UR if that is what was being reported.

38.) Another ramp/ramp implemented.

39.) Ramp/ramp yet again. Moved the split to before the toll plaza because you have to make your decision BEFORE the tolls. (I’m very familiar with that spot.)

40.) I’ve driven on 29 there in Trenton a few times. I only know it as SR-29 myself. But I’d check with MReiser4670 before changing anything since he seemed to have worked on that area. Just send him a PM and ask if he knows if locals use the ā€œJohn Fitch Wayā€ name more than SR-29. He may have just worked to get it workable and not worried about the name, OR he knows more than we do :slight_smile:

NOTE: I used ramp/ramp splits in all these items. Freeway/Freeway would work as well. I’ve been a fan of ramp/ramp but others like Freeway/Freeway more. I’ve actually put the Freeway/Freeway in the wiki although I haven’t had much experience with it. Anyway, long story short, I know ramp/ramp works and I’d like to work with Freeway/Freeway on some local roads first before I start putting them in places I don’t drive often.

P.S. - I start driving to NY/NJ tomorrow morning. You may see me on the map anywhere from Staten Island, to Summit NJ, to South Jersey at different times from Thursday to Tuesday :slight_smile:

thanks again!

We’ve discussed the ramp/ramp and Freeway/Freeway earlier in this thread.

You are welcome. And I am sure I have discussed it in 20 threads by now. Hard to keep track :wink:

response from mresier4670

I think he is going to do it…

And more!

  1. This segment and the below segment have their on/off ramp nodes nowhere near the actual location.
    https://www.waze.com/editor/?zoom=5&lat=40.89409&lon=-74.26179&layers=BFTFTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTFT&segments=31827108

  2. On Ramp and highway can’t turn onto off ramp at node:
    https://www.waze.com/editor/?zoom=6&lat=40.89024&lon=-74.27187&layers=BFTFTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTFT&segments=32145392,67369091

  3. Segment can’t turn left
    https://www.waze.com/editor/?zoom=6&lat=40.88944&lon=-74.2704&layers=BFTFTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTFT&segments=64936840

  4. Name should have colon removed:
    https://www.waze.com/editor/?zoom=5&lat=40.19368&lon=-74.86244&layers=BFTFTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTFT&segments=65409559

  5. Segment should be a ramp with the right node closer to the actual junction for correct voice instructions. Street name should also be deleted.
    https://www.waze.com/editor/?zoom=6&lat=40.89307&lon=-74.25347&layers=BFTFTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTFT&segments=62634280

  6. 2 Ramps should be joined together at the road to avoid instructions to turn back around onto the other ramp
    https://www.waze.com/editor/?zoom=7&lat=40.19379&lon=-74.82953&layers=BFTFTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTFT&segments=42492244

  7. Left turn not allowed
    https://www.waze.com/editor/?zoom=7&lat=40.71948&lon=-73.99035&layers=BFTFTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTFT&segments=34784930

  8. The node from the highway is pretty far from the actual junction
    https://www.waze.com/editor/?zoom=6&lat=40.21393&lon=-74.76711&layers=BFTFTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTFT&segments=31687272

In addition to my above post, I feel a mix of emotions right now. On one hand, I feel like every road now is locked and prevents people from editing, on the other hand I just had a complete WTF moment where a user split State Rte 4 in Norther NJ a few weeks ago and did a partial job. The roads weren’t named, so they theoretically won’t show up on the new map tile update and he never connected the split road back to the junction where he split them. So now the whole Northern NJ won’t be able to use Rte 4 at all until the next map update from what I frantically just fixed! I PMed him. Lets see if he responds.

(New York issue)

Exit 41 N on the Southern State Parkway (Bay Shore Road) is not accessible and has not been for some time due to exit work (the exit is closed off but waze tries to send you through it)…is there a way for this to be fixed?

Depends, how long is it going to be closed for? If just a few weeks it’s not really advisable as updates are still hit or miss. If longer just go in and disconnect the off ramp, or post a permalink and one of us will do it, but you have to let us know at least a week before it opens in order to get it restored.

BTW, I see that no one helped me with my last set of requests (41 and on). Anyway, below are some more:

  1. Ramp node to highway needs a green arrow and moved much closer to the actual junction of where the highway and ramp meet.
    https://www.waze.com/editor/?zoom=7&lat=40.88632&lon=-74.28264&layers=BFTFTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTFT&segments=61485791

  2. Node where highway splits should be moved higher up where the highway actually splits (by the beginning of the solid white line.
    https://www.waze.com/editor/?zoom=7&lat=40.83803&lon=-74.01953&layers=BFTFTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTFT&segments=31778059

  3. The two ramps should come to one node so that the routing instructions won’t be able to have the driver make a u-turn back onto the highway from the exit ramp onto the on ramp.
    https://www.waze.com/editor/?zoom=6&lat=40.88719&lon=-74.28005&layers=BFTFTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTFT&segments=61532040

  4. The ramp and the highway need to be fixed here. I tried to do it, but too many segments were locked. I’m not too sure what is going on in this area. There may be some construction, but a whole bunch of road segments got deleted, and still show on google maps.
    https://www.waze.com/editor/?zoom=6&lat=40.26888&lon=-74.49829&layers=BFTFTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTFT&segments=61834417

  5. Segment should be able to make a left at intersection.
    https://www.waze.com/editor/?zoom=8&lat=40.73838&lon=-74.07407&layers=BFTFTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTFT&segments=62139474

  6. Turns restricted from segments highlighted. Also add the turn-right lane.
    https://www.waze.com/editor/?zoom=7&lat=40.65069&lon=-74.22071&layers=BFTFTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTFT&segments=66251057,66251024

  7. Should add the right-turn lane to the following segment:
    https://www.waze.com/editor/?zoom=6&lat=40.96625&lon=-73.85959&layers=BFTFTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTFT&segments=33669973

  8. The three ramp segments should probably start closer to the actual junction for better voice directions.
    https://www.waze.com/editor/?zoom=7&lat=40.85675&lon=-73.97248&layers=BFTFTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTFT&segments=62220515,63769550,61435690

I was traveling a lot recently, so just getting caught up!

41.) updated
42.) Updated a bunch of turns around there. Ugh.
43.) Fixed.
44.) Fixed.
45.) Un-junctioned the railroad from a bunch of ramps. Identified split moved and named. Names added to a few other ramps in the area. Names REMOVED from yet other ramps. Started to add E/W designator to 46. This area is very complex, so please review my changes. I’m sure there is more to do here. I mainly focused on 46.
46.) Ramps realigned.
47.) Turn restricted.
48.) Moved a bit closer.

49.) Fixed.
50.) Split moved back.
51.) Already fixed?
52.) Yeah looks like there is a new arrangement and the last editor gave up or forgot to finish up. This page has a image from the newspaper of what it will eventually look like. So the GPS tracks seem to indicate that part of the SPUI is open. I tried to make the roads into something useful, but I have no idea what it really looks like.
53.) Are you sure that turn is still allowed? Lots has changed there with the new bridge for Truck 1&9. I was there a few months back, but not at that intersection.
54.) I’ve build and rebuilt that circle a few times. And someone else has modified it since my last edits. I think I have it straighened out again. BTW, this can NOT be a true roundabout in the editor since you can make lefts from 439 onto 1&9 in the middle.
55.) Turn lane added. Turns updated.
56.) The ramps are early, BUT you need advance notice through there. And there are plenty of signs earlier than our splits are mapped, so drivers shouldn’t be confused. Banished had touched this previously, so there may be specific reasons for the layout. For now I say leave it be unless there are URs there.

thanks!

and more!

  1. Segment right turn should be restricted:
    https://www.waze.com/editor/?zoom=7&lat=40.18672&lon=-74.56826&layers=BFTFTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTFT&segments=31860471
    (also, if it was me, I would move the top ramp on-node a bit closer to the junction)

  2. Sports Complex on Ramp on-node needs to be moved pretty far back. Also, I’m not sure how you want to classify the ā€˜ramp’ since I believe it is only opened during games.
    https://www.waze.com/editor/?zoom=5&lat=40.81487&lon=-74.05288&layers=BFTFTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTFT&segments=67658693

  3. Segment ramp needs to begin much further down where the solid white line begins
    https://www.waze.com/editor/?zoom=6&lat=40.91778&lon=-74.08817&layers=BFTFTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTFT&segments=31784819

  4. I bookmarked this a few days ago when there was a UR, but I believe a left turn should be allowed here. No?
    https://www.waze.com/editor/?zoom=8&lat=40.75222&lon=-73.94425&layers=BFTFTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTFT&segments=34464180

  5. I believe these nodes need to have all of their turns allowed.
    https://www.waze.com/editor/?zoom=6&lat=40.1307&lon=-74.83164&layers=BFTFTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTFT&segments=42528112,42528113,42543986

  6. Left turn of segment not allowed
    https://www.waze.com/editor/?zoom=7&lat=40.24838&lon=-74.72838&layers=BFTFTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTFT&segments=62038288

  7. Left turn of segment now allowed
    https://www.waze.com/editor/?zoom=8&lat=40.73159&lon=-74.03939&layers=BFTFTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTFT&segments=65541367

57.) Fixed.
58.) Moved. I am also not certain on what road type to use. Parking lot should keep ā€œnormalā€ traffic out. May have to test to see what happens when you try to route to the stadium itself.
59.) Moved.
60.) I can’t see a reason why not, so I enabled it. Now we see if there are URs complaining about it enabled :wink:
61.) Enabled.
62.) Updated. I also combined the on and off ramps on the other side of the highway so we could restrict the ramp to ramp u-turn.
63.) Restricted.

I’ll leave the few URs for you to close.

thanks again! :slight_smile:

and more :slight_smile: :

  1. Left turn not allowed:
    https://www.waze.com/editor/?zoom=7&lat=40.82767&lon=-73.91117&layers=BFTFTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTFT&segments=34581571

  2. Ramp name should be deleted, as the next ramp segment has a name.
    https://www.waze.com/editor/?zoom=7&lat=40.89866&lon=-74.25322&layers=BFTFTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTFT&segments=31824123

  3. Left turn now allowed
    https://www.waze.com/editor/?zoom=7&lat=40.72079&lon=-74.00321&layers=BFTFTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTFT&segments=34788274

IMPORTANT This isn’t a lock request issue, but today I found 2 areas where segments seemed to have been deleted with small little segments left behind. I fixed the first one and started fixing the second area (https://www.waze.com/editor/?zoom=6&lat=40.6112&lon=-74.27692&layers=BFTFTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTFT&segments=62625881), but decided that I should wait and try to escalate this. Whether this is a serious bug or a malicious user, we should find out. Is there anybody who can help us with this? I asked orbitc, and he had no clue either.

Thanks! :slight_smile:

Ditto…
I already discuss this with Wajo357… Some of the segments are still there that I created or updated awhile back. Have you seen this happening before?
