ASAP - I-495 intx I-66 in Washington, DC Area

Post by keetara
:!: At the intersection of I-495 and I-66, the Left exit from Northbound I-495 to Westbound I-66 has been permanently Closed. This change is needed ASAP!! The ramp is locked, otherwise I would change it.

You are welcome! I posted it as soon as I heard about it on the radio. I wonder if there is a way to contact VA and MD Depts. of Transportation for updates on the construction? Or if they have a subscription list?

Hey, it looks like this interchange is changing again on Saturday. Does anyone drive through there enough to map the new configuration?

See my PM. For some reason I was able to unlock the critical segments.

Thanks for the confirmation. We'll see if we can keep it disconnected.

Being on the other side of DC I really can't keep track of all the construction in Virginia.

I've gone ahead and disconnected it again based on the following from Manor:
Hi carl,
The ramp was reconnected because of a reoccurring navigation problem.
according to the gps points there was movment on that ramp in the past few weeks, in addition users navigated through that ramp (thus creating the navigation problems), so based on that information the ramp should be connected.

we are not aware of any construction work on that ramp nor do we check for these type of things, we rely on waze users to update the map because they
pretty much knows what's best.

if the ramp is closed for any reason feel free to disconnect it again, i will make sure that we wont reconnect it again.

Kind Regards,
Manor.

Manorbe(6) reconnected it. I really wish we could annotate the edit map to explain why changes have been made.
