35W Crosstown - Initial run at fixing

http://www.waze.com/cartouche/?id=24990 ... FTFFFTTTTT

OK. Yes it is 2:21 in the morning and I am hitting the sack. Take a look. Feedback appreciated. I changed crosstown to Major Highway vs Freeway after reading the road naming conventions in the Wiki. Thats why the road is now red.

I have modified the freeways and ramps and crosstown based on two things. First the DOT maps for the construction.

Second, the GPS points as arrows. IF you zoom in, you get a pretty good model for the flow.

Caution: The new roads will NOT match the aerial views. Those are outdated.

Lastly, I have LOCKED all the new segments and have labelled them with a suffix of CONST ZN. Since no one else seemed to have addressed that kind of naming, I added it to the general naming wiki entry.


===Basic Rules===

Start by following the naming rules for your major roads. Interstate as "I- 10".
US highways as "US Hwy 90". To show that the segments are part of a construction zone, just add the suffix "CONST ZN". "I- 10" becomes "I- 10 CONST ZN".
"US Hwy 90" becomes "US Hwy 90 CONST ZN".

When temporarily re-setting road geometry, closely monitor recent GPS points as the aerial maps will likely display an out-dated view. Also, be sure to closely monitor these sections of roadway and remove the CONST ZN suffix whenever the construction is done.

Hey Oscar. Was traveling south west on 494 heading towards Highway 61/point douglas drive and the navigation wanted me to exit to 61 and back on 494 again. I see a road segment that road segment right after bailey rd crosses is pointing backwards. Tried to change but don't have permissions.
Not sure if there are other issues.

Thank lemon. Keep an eye out for a new user blog post. I submitted it last night. Took to heart you comment that we are ahead of the curve. Thought the user blog was a good way to get the info out.
