That is because you need to be at least the rank of the road you are trying to connect to as it modifies those streets into segments. S street is locked to R2 and I see you are R1. I can connect those roads for you to the main one. For this new road, Glick Court is that one that is set by the city?

Should update on the next tile update. No worries! I am still new too!

Yes, Glick Court NW is set by the city.

Thanks for your help! (I'm obviously pretty new at this )

Welcome! You found the right forum to post in, which means you are already above average!

A minor point: those new roadways that you added ought to be "Private Roads" rather than "parking lot roads" so that the street name will appear on the Waze map for drivers nearing their destination there. Also, alleys in DC have a 15 mph speed limit, which you could add to those segments.

Here's another speed camera. 200 Independence Avenue Southwest, Washington, DC. Found it the hard way at 32 miles per hour. This is getting a little bothersome.
