Hey AussiePacman,

If this road is within your editable area you might as well do the edits yourself and earn some points.

You could change the road type to private road, set it to two-way, select “none” for street name and connect it to the Nelson Rd.

Shauny230 created the road, maybe he’s living there, so you could also message him directly.

Cheers

No worries Ill message him, I understand I can edit the road for sure. Ill see what he comes back with. It just seems like an odd segment hence why I was looking to delete it. I was down there the other day and doesn’t match. All good. Ill see what he comes back with.

Ill have a look at that in a few…  
I suggest just delete that segment which I can not do. The user has never logged into forums. Seems odd, O posts, O edits, O points… As I said I was there the other day and thats just a driveway.

So once again, this is the result of a pave from the app. We don’t automatically delete these, they need investigating. In this case, when I look at Google Streetview, I can see the path their car has driven, including a road where this new pave is:

I also checked the authorised source for NSW and found there are two roads missing here, including the one the driver paved:

I’ve added both.

Fixed it up because we can’t knowingly leave roads in a broken state. But the segments still need speed limits to be added. 🙂

I drove the segment and fixed it again. It was noted as unpaved and its paved. The second part of the segment is still a driveway, mail box, fence, gate, etc. I’ve shortened the road to match reality. Up until several weeks ago the new road was in fact a shared driveway so I’ll keep an eye on it if they extend the road.

Which road were you driving on? Did you put lots of UR’s where the roads were unpaved?
