Level1(auto) Update: Plymouth - Tamerton Foliot (Tamerton Fo

My Level: 3
Reason for request: Incorrect routing still

Permalink

I made changes to show Tamerton Foliot Rd and Fore St to a Primary Rd in the hopes that the routing would be better due to an earlier report saying that the route provided was narrow and not the best option and the majority of traffic does not follow the suggested route and having driven this way multiple times I have never gone the way Waze has suggested. Is there anything else that could be done here to correct the routing?

Thanks

It may have been that only a short section in the area was set to Primary Road. For PRs to work properly it needs a more wider reach. I’ve expended it now into a wider area. Hopefully this will have a more positive effect. I’m not sure what else we can do to fix it. At the end of the day it’s public road, so even though it’s narrow, it’s still drivable.

If you have the WMEOpenData script installed, the Highlight by Classification, Show as polylines and Enhance polyline visibility options are you friends. Primary Roads are show in yellow, there are some false positives those, so be careful.

Hi Keith

Thanks for adding the extra in. Was not sure if that was the best option so thought I’d better ask here.
