L5 Update: Ontario - Mississauga (Hwy 403 W)

Hi Editors, I’d appreciate your help with a map update.

Permalink
Reason: The overhead sign (or BGS) should be - VI field: (image1 below)
Towards field: Hamilton

Because by default, it’s showing (image2 below)

Oh, and the Exit color background for the WB 403 ramps to WB/EB 407 should be blue, not green.

Thank you in advance,

updated. please mark thread as resolved

I didn’t say “ᴡᴇꜱᴛ” should be included in the VI. BGS says: 403 (shield) Hamilton; and the TTS should be “to Hwy 403 » Hamilton” in Turn Instruction only.

Without text with the shield, the app will place the towards header on top with the shield.

I’ll remove the “west” from the audible though.

Exit signs color set to blue for “Exit 109B: Hwy 407 ETR E”

Hwy 403 W "“to Hwy 403 » Hamilton” reset to default. (Silent)

Please review and mark it solved

It’s still showing green. It hasn’t been changed to blue the past 2.5 years.

The way it was set up was fine, it was only matching the BGS/TTS with Visual for WB 403 at the EB 407 ramp split that need fixing that time. Unless ‘Without Verbal’ could work too.

Btw (I don’t mean to upset anybody), this request was days before the mitigation from Forum to Discuss, so ofc there will be thousands of requests that are left unsolved before Mon, Sep 23, 2024 (even if 99% of them were solved).

Hummm exit is blue now

Usually, we don’t put guidance when it continues straight.
Is there a special reason to have instructions here ??

Thanks to remind me the date of Discuss
I’ll look at the other unresolved ones to see if there are any segments to relock
If there is anythings else, open a new request

the ‘With Verbal’ instruction for WB 403 at the EB 407 split was added by a US editor back in Jun 2023, simply because it changes directions, and it goes down to two lanes from three (I kinda think ‘Without Verbal’ can work, but up to you if ‘With Verbal’ is appropriate).

I took the opportunity to adjust the number of lanes at the start of the segment to 3 and force verbal instructions only for the lanes guidance
You should hear keep the 2 left lanes
No visual indication for the 403 >> Hamilton
Which eliminates your debate above in this request.

I hope you be please to mark it solved :thinking:
