Major Updates thread

Post by rottielover
Rather than everyone wondering why I did something, or how come I just messed up your edit. I thought I would be a little more proactive and provide a thread for any major changes I'm making to the in my AM area.

Please feel free to add your own post to this thread if you're making significant changes to the map!

Zumbehl Road - Veterans Memorial to 1st Capitol

This road was improperly split (does not meet the criteria for splitting a road).
I tried to correct for this by using the "mapcat bow tie" method, and while I haven't gotten any complaints about the bowties I have noted that the speed and segment data has become corrupted on these segments (waze showing people driving the wrong way on the 1 way stretches).

To prevent any further issues with this stretch of primary street, I'm opting to delete all the corrupted segments and regenerate them as a single 2 way segment. Turns in and out of the parking lots will be handled with turn restrictions.

Round-a-bout @ Boon's Lick and St. Charles Ave in St. Charles near 1st Capitol Drive

This round-a-bout and it's connecting streets have been re-created and locked due to recent improper edits, causing the roundabout to be un-navigable. There were also several segments with corrupted data.

I-170 to I-70 to Lambert Airport - There is a routing issue with the exit's from I-170 onto I-70. I've submitted the unlock request and will be cleaning this up so that the routing engine will give people the correct exit to use to get to the airport.

Update: This has been worked on. Time will tell if it's going to work the way intended. The main discussion about this section is HERE

Update: I was over-thinking this. I've simplified it way down, see the main discussion topic for details.

Waze has approved my request, and I have been granted AM rights over the entire state of Missouri.

Don't be surprised if you see my username pop up from time to time as I stamp out U-Turn nodes, among other various map fixes. ;)

US Hwy 412 / State Hwy 84 Kennett MO to I-55

No way else to say it, this was a mess. I've set everything to match the MODOT maps and locked the area down (although it appears that I'm the only AM for the area anyway).

Upcoming / in-progress work - I-44 cleanup and locking from Lebanon to St. Louis . I-55 Cleanup from Arkansas border to St. Louis I-70 cleanup from KC to STL, and I-35 cleanup from KC to Iowa border

By "cleanup" I mean locking of any unlocked segments, upgrading the lock of any segments that are at a level 1 or 2 lock, and removing the space between the dash on any segments that don't meet this requirement. (IE, "I- 44" instead of "I-44" ). The same applies to all ramp segments attached to these Interstates, however I'll be cleaning up ramp and exit naming on another pass at a later date.

If there are any CM's who are bored, please PM me what interstate or section you'd like to cover. (I'm updating the Missouri- To Do list right after I post this message).

Once the interstates are clean I'll try and come up with a plan for the US and State Highways, though I'd like to get the states exception for State highway naming done by then.

Cleanup of I-55 is complete from AK boarder to Arnold MO, I'll update the To-Do wiki.

Cleanup of I-55 complete.

I've started on I-70 from St. Louis and have made it out to about 270 so far.

Please check the Wiki To-Do page for the updates to the Interstate cleanup / checking "project".
