Cape Town: Mill St ramp to Buitenkant L3 to L2

Post by xcentricdave
Could someone unlock the Ramp Segment to L2 please. Need to update the turn restrictions, the right turn into Buitenkant St is signposted (roadsigns and markings) as not allowed...

cheers,
dave

Dave, I've downlocked the continuation there.
Just looking at the road markings in streetview, it seems that same is true for a right turn into Maynard at the opposite end, off of this section of the ramp.

I downlocked that one too.

[EDIT] Hold that thought on the opposite one. There is only guidance markings on the road itself, but no supporting road sign that I can see that explicitly prohibits the right turn onto Maynard.

That's rather interesting!

The Buitenkant is 2-way, and you don't turn across traffic, but maybe it's to prevent a back up at the lights just as you go under the bridge?

Anyway, if it's illegal then waze shouldn't offer it. Thanks for noticing, Dave.

Hi LeighGr, could you downlock the continuation of the L3 ramp beyond the junction - I still can't change the turn restriction...

Rod, Indeed - I was surprises when the problem was reported as well I know I've turned right there in the past...

cheers,
Dave

Hi Carel,
The one turn restriction done. I echo your thoughts about the other direction and there being no road sign. I've asked the reporter of the other restriction if they know about the other direction.

This whole area has changed since the Streetview pics where taken as well - the space under Mill St is now an IRT bus station...

cheers,
Dave

I took a drive down here this morning - you are allowed to make the second right turn... so the streetview intel was correct!
