Some major changes went into effect on Wednesday, 21/AUG/2013 involving US-22 and PA-145 in Whitehall, PA (news article).

  1. The ramp from US-22 East to PA-145 North has been permanently closed and may be removed (Permalink)

  2. The ramp from US-22 East to PA-145 South is now to be used for both PA-145 North and South (Permalink). The new “To PA-145 N” part of the interchange at the end of the ramp matches up with the shadow of a pole just north of the “stop bar” on the southbound lanes on the satellite image (directly in front of the apartment building [this photo gives a good idea of the location]). You can initiate the left-turn segment just west of where the grass triangle ends and make it a “T”-shaped junction. Please make the ramp split so that TTS reads “keep left” and “keep right”.

Also rename the exit “Exit to SR-145 / 7th St / MacArthur Rd”, then the two sides of the split “To SR-145 N / MacArthur Rd N” and “To SR -145 S / MacArthur Rd S / 7th St”.

NOTE: This is only a change to the US-22 E / PA-145 part of this interchange–thee US-22 W side in the photo will be completed later this year! Also, the reconfiguration of PA-145 N to US-22 E has not yet begun, so you can leave that segment undisturbed.

My regular “L5 fixer” isn’t available right now. Given how major a change to navigation this is, I figured I’d bring it to the forum so it shows up ASAP.

Thanks in advance!

Did you put the construction on http://feedthe.waze.hu/?

At last check, this third party service is NOT available for the NA Server…

Bump–there are now reports being logged by users (I was trying to be proactive)… Can I get an L5 to address this for me?

Thanks!

I took a quick look, but am too busy myself getting ready to head to Waze HQ Israel.

You seem to have a good handle on this, so I see no reason why you should not just edit it yourself.

I’ll unlock in everything in the area to L1, and then you can relock to your level.

Once done, post a follow-up here or PM me and we/I’ll relock to L5.

Check my work and let me know when I can lock it up again.

I made minor changes (removed left turn from SR-145 S to crossover [no u-turns], adjusted split to get TTS to read “keep left” or “keep right” and moved split back just a bit [follow-up drives through there area showed a longer set of stacking lanes]).

Thanks everyone! Time to lock it back up!

Jon, do yo have time to lock this up before you leave?

My flight out is tomorrow, so of course I’m last minute packing! And have an hour to drive to Detroit Metro from home.

See you in a couple of days.
