A38(M) to M6 (S) - Opinions Please

Post by joshbrw
So, with this section of the A38(M) towards M6 (S) the directions are fine, but I think it might be worth saying "M6 (S) towards London" as the overhead gantry signs towards spaghetti from the A38 (M) don't actually say M6 North or M6 South, they both just say "M6" with the destinations (i.e. London).

What are people's thoughts on this?

As most of us can't rename ramps, are we supposed to make requests in the editor request forum? Or just allow our L5 and L6's to work their way up and down the motorway network?
Yeah.. But I'm not sure if it's against the rules of naming ramps. The signs at spaghetti we really bad!

Does this mean that the driving direction (I.e "(S)") shouldn't be used on the new ramp naming?

I'm pretty sure 'M6 > London' is correct under Tim's newly suggested/agreed naming policy
