Intersection of Louisburg Rd and New Hope Rd Raleigh, NC. The section of new hope road in between the two Louisburg directions needs to be named to prevent incorrect routing.

This segment is properly set as a no name segment. This is a standard guideline for the segment between the two 1-way segments and is set that way for when Waze navigates a u-turn at this location. If it is named, it will say "take a left at New Hope Rd and then take a left at Lousiburg Rd."

Until Waze actually gives us a real u-turn ability, this the way we do this, and it's documented in the wiki. With real u-turn commands later, it will matter much less whether it is named or not.

If the road on either side of Louisburg was a different name than New Hope, the center segment must always be unnamed or one of the left-hand turns will say the wrong road name for 1/2 the drivers.
