New York complete.

The majority of all interstate and non-interstate toll roads, tunnels and bridges are complete in the US. We still have a few states which need either updates or confirmation, though. It would be helpful if a few other country managers would step in and assist.

Depending on what date the next map update is complete through, we can enable the Toll option on the client after that update goes live. My vote is for 8/17: once a map update goes live for edits through August 17, I think the option should be enabled for the US. I'm picking today because several high volume bridges in New York were not updated until now.

Update:
West Virginia done (Memorial & Newell-East Liverpool)
Moved to the Completed side. Thanks!

I prefer additional replies as the threads are marked with a new reply and makes it more visible.

No, this was a document we used for transition only after Waze implemented the Toll option in the editor. It should not be referenced going forward except to see perhaps who updated stuff originally. But being from November 2012, it's not relevant any longer really.

Because you cannot get on the bridge without getting through that one toll gate, I assumed that meant we only need to mark the segment(s) that passed through the toll gate(s). Since technically the bridge should be one segment to the other side (one for each direction on some bridges) until the next junction (when the toll is no longer applicable anyway), there was no need to mark segments after the initial toll segment.

On the approach to the toll booth side again I am only marking the section that passed through the toll booth assuming it made no difference for the upcoming "Avoid Toll" option how many segments were marked before the actual booth for the feature to work.

My objective was to minimize the number of segments that required Toll management. This seemed to best meet the agreed toll road procedures I was reviewing in the related discussion threads, unless I missed some threads along the way. I am happy to support a different procedure accepted by the community if this causes problems I did not consider.
Pretty much. For one-way tolls there's no way around having to have a split section, fortunately road geometry at major one-way tolls already means its split. For closed toll systems (no way on/off without paying) all segments can be marked. For open toll, eg Garden State Parkway, only the segments going through a toll-plaza/transponder reader should be marked.

I do believe it's done, but also was PMing with kentsmith9 about it in terms of which segments were marked as toll, etc. If it is complete, please move it to the completed section. I'm not planning on checking on all of these myself! :shock:
We're talking Virginia here. I also believe that were talking about those without moderator privileges.

Added. Thanks Goldhawk. Are you going to get them updated as toll roads too?! Please please please? There's still lots to do!
SR-200 (ICC) in Maryland and SR-267 (the Dulles Toll Road) in Virginia are toll roads (not tunnels or brigdes) that were addressed in the toll road thread (both have long been updated).

With the increase in editing area I have updated the Thomas J. Hatem Memorial Bridge (US 40 at Susquehanna River) in Maryland.

So was SR-267, the Dulles Toll Road. The Bay Bridge Tunnel "Chesapeake Bay (US 13)" was noted as done here: http://www.waze.com/forum/viewtopic.php ... 10#p215525.
