drive thru unlocked, McDonalds deletion approved.

You should be able to edit (delete) the segment and merge the existing nodes,
If so, you can mark this thread as resolved

Removing a road

1. Click on a segment with the mouse
2. Click the Trash Can icon in the toolbar or hit the Delete key on the keyboard

You can select and delete multiple segments at one time, but the keyboard Delete key will not work for that. You have to use the Trash Can icon and then confirm you want to delete those segments.

Connecting roads

When drawing new segments, or moving segments around, the editor will auto-junction roads.

1. For new roads, if you start and/or end the drawing on an existing segment, a junction is created
2. For existing roads, if you move the end of a segment onto an existing segment, a junction is created
3. If you move a junction to an existing segment, that junction is now part of that segment and any roads connected to that segment previously are all now joined together

Be sure to check the turn restrictions for your newly created junctions.

Deleting a junction

A junction is a small white circle with a black outline, which connects two or more segments. Junctions with only two segments might seem unnecessary but may actually have a purpose. Before deleting any two-segment junction be sure the junction is not present for one of these reasons:

• A change in the road name, city, state, or country.
• A change in road elevation to permit complex overpasses and underpasses.
• Part of a loop road preventing routing errors.

If you are certain the junction is not fulfilling one of the above purposes, then you can remove it in one of two ways:

1. Click on the junction, and it will change to a blue dot with a white outline; then click the trash can icon, or use keyboard shortcut Delete or Del key (not backspace). This converts the junction into a geometry node and merges the two segments. Only two segments must be connected at a junction before you can delete it.
2. Select segments on either side of the junction, and click the Bridge icon which appears over the junction. Note that this will also increase the level of the segments by 1, so this method is best used only when replacing an inadvertent junction with an overpass.

Remember that all elements of the road name, city, state (where applicable) and country must match for either of these two options to work.

You will also find additional information related specifically to Overpasses, Underpasses and Bridges in that section.
