L4-L1 Garners Lane and others

Good Evening

I’ve just added a couple of roads that weren’t on the map but I can’t add the turns for the junctions, so can the lock level be dropped for the following junctions or can someone just add the allowed turns please?

If you want to add the turns there are no restrictions at any of the junctions :slight_smile:

Many thanks

Hi Phil,

All done. Sorry to spoil your fun, but it was easier than a lot of downlocking!

However, whilst I was looking about round your Permalinks, there’s some things that you could look into (and editing points to be gained!)

Wheatcroft: a segment of Sterndale Rd is missing a ‘City’ attribute; Abbeyfield Cl may have the wrong ‘City’ name - needs some investigation.

Winbolt St: have a look at Bonis Cr and Poplar Gr - one has a probably incorrect ‘City’ attribute, the other has none.

Tall Trees Pl: directly opposite, Wellfield Rd shows up in GSV with a 20, not 30 S/L. Speed Limits around here generally could do with a bit of verification - I think some may have changed since they were first added to the mapping.

Cheers,

Mike

Cheers Mike

Thanks for sorting that :slight_smile:

Lots of the roads in Stockport have a double Stockport attribute rather than an area attrubute, the Hazel Grove on Bonis Crescent is fairly close personally I’d of called it Great Moor but I don’t have the editing level to be able to create cities :frowning:

can you change the name of this https://www.waze.com/editor/?env=row&lon=-2.21155&lat=53.38441&s=71277847&zoom=5&segments=123328553 road from Wilmslow Road to Schools Hill please?

Many thanks

Hi Phil,

I too dislike seeing addresses such as “So-and-so Rd, Stockport, Stockport” and it’s one of my mapping missions to eliminate them where I can (there’s often no alternative in city centres), so I’m with you on that one.

Do, as the Americans say, due diligence, make sure you’ve got the district names thoroughly researched and absolutely right, make a Permalink of four or five differently-named segments, let me know what the ‘City’ name is, I’ll change the names on the segments you send me, so creating a new ‘City’ name and you can do the rest and build up a fair few edits.

If you get to the edge of your area with a still more to do, let me know where you want the changes made and I’ll do them for you.

You gave me a Permalink to one small segment, but it’s the whole damn road from the roundabout to the T-junction that’s mis-named! How has that escaped other Editor’s attention? I’ve unlocked the whole road for you to make the changes. Look at the ‘City’ names too - half the road is Cheadle Hulme, the other just Cheadle. Check which is correct and alter accordingly too, please.

Also, I’ve downlocked two segments of Cheadle Rd between the incorrectly-named Wilmslow Rd and Shiers Dr. I think these should be re-named Wilmslow Rd - do you agree?

Let me know when you’re done and I’ll re-lock these.

Cheers,

Mike

Hi Mike

I was quite surprised when I saw the road with the wrong name… I’ve changed it now and renamed the Cheadle Hulme section of it just to Cheadle, the two sections of Cheadle road are right if you look at the T junction on GSV you can see the street signs at the junction :slight_smile:

I’m pretty good on the areas in and around Stockport having spent the past 15 or so years driving a cab around the town so when I get an hour or so to myself I’ll have a go at sorting out a few areas and let you know :slight_smile:

Enjoy your weekend

Best regards

Phil

Hi Phil,

I’ve re-locked all those segments. Actually, you’d missed a few of the wrong ‘City’ names, so I’ve done them for you. Do you use the WME Color Highlights script? It’s handy for showing up out of place ‘City’ names.

Thanks for putting me right on the Cheadle Rd/Wilmslow Rd naming - it just shows that you should use more than one source (I used OpenStreetMap) when checking these things.

Standing by for the Stockport ‘City’ names.

Hope your weekend isn’t too frantic!

Cheers

Mike
