First of all, I don't know if this is the right place to put this, so feel free to move it if it's not.
After seeing a lot of frustration with Google Maps on the board (and rightfully so), I thought I would step in to help. I'm a Google Map Maker Regional Lead, meaning essentially any edit I make through the Map Maker (http://www.google.com/mapmaker) program is automatically approved.
Therefore, if you have an issue with a road (or anything on the map), please post them below and I'll try to get to them. Also, if you're a Map Maker user and have an edit pending approval, you can link to the edit below and I'll approve it.
Hope I can help!
I posted an edit a couple of weeks ago to have the NY 361 markers removed from Sharon Rd and Maple Ave. between the CT line and US 44 in Millerton, and to replace them with CR 62 markers. The CR 62 markers were added, but the Route 361 markers still exist on the NY side of the border. NY 361 was decommissioned in 1980. CT 361 ends at the border.
NY 361 successfully removed. May take an hour or two to go into effect.
Here's a screenshot of CR 118 near Bracebridge, ON

For some reason, it shows as CR 118 West, instead of just CR 118, and it definitely looks weird. Would you be able to fix this?
Thanks :)
As far as I can tell, US 33 shouldn't be on Broad St (https://www.google.com/maps/@37.5492366,-77.4477298,17.38z) anywhere past Harrison St, but it's shown as such out to Adams St.
VA 161 should be labeled as "N Boulevard" between VA 147 (https://www.google.com/maps/@37.5533508,-77.4751861,18.5z) and where it becomes Hermitage Rd (https://www.google.com/maps/@37.5780207,-77.4616193,18.92z).

Fixed, but may take a bit longer to process since I'm only a regional lead for the United States. I'll check back periodically to see that it gets approved.

US-277 & US-90 do not bypass Del Rio, Texas. They still go through downtown by way of Veterans Blvd and Gibbs Street. At some point in the last year or so, Google Maps switched the shields to follow Loop-79 around the east edge of the city, but this does not reflect reality. US-377 terminates downtown, rather than bypassing the city as indicated.

If I also try "CR 621" or "NC 906" both Numbered Highway and Abbreviated, I get a "Something is wrong with this feature right now." Anyone else have any luck with the numbering features?

Here's a pretty extensive problem around Macon: Google claims there's a State Route 361 designation on several roads, but it hasn't been in place for years (I think it was planned to become a GDOT-maintained bypass route but never really materialized since I-475 was built instead). So GM Navigation tells people to turn on GA 361, which of course is confusing because none of the roads are signed that way.
Start here (https://www.google.com/maps/@32.7458673,-83.6725605,17.42z) and work your way around west to Fulton Mill Road, then north all the way up to US 23.
Also in the same area, GA 11 (and US 41) was moved off of Houston Road decades ago onto current US 41 (Industrial Highway) to the east. There's also a weird GA 11 section here (https://www.google.com/maps/@32.7154336,-83.6847959,16.51z) for some reason.
Finally, this intersection should be changed to a roundabout: here is my edit (https://www.google.com/mapmaker?gw=55&editids=eMUML-exjBBj-FwAvi&iwloc=0_0), but I probably didn't do it right.

Approved your three pending edits. Also added 14A to Colorado and 27th, ending at the EB exit and WB entrance ramps for 90. Not sure if this is the right ending place, so let me know if it's not. Google gave an error when trying to add Business 90.

99/92 issue is sent off to Google for further review. Google Map Maker is fairly dilapidated and it's clear that Google doesn't focus much on it anymore. That is one of the known issues that has fallen on deaf ears for the last year.

Might as well have you look into removing CR 583A from Sunset Lane in Lutz, FL (https://www.google.com/maps/@28.1369588,-82.4424952,15z). It was previously a secondary route, but has been out of the system for decades. Hillsborough County maps often include the route too, which may be why it persists on Google Maps.
Further south in Tampa (https://www.google.com/maps/@27.9608117,-82.5185306,15z), Florida 616 is missing from Spruce Street/Boy Scout Boulevard/Columbus Drive between Florida 60 (Memorial Highway) and U.S. 92. Furthermore FL 589 should not be shown south of FL 60, and FL 60 should be shown as a freeway west to a point just beyond the ramps with "Bayport Drive" and "Campbell Causeway Access Road S" as there is an interchange there.
Florida 685 does not extend southwest of U.S. 92 (https://www.google.com/maps/@27.922304,-82.5043364,15z), it ends at Dale Mabry Highway and is only signed along Henderson between there and Florida 60 (Kennedy Boulevard). Ages ago it was a secondary route to Manhattan Avenue.

Weird. Hopefully they'll approve it the second time. If they need documentation, VDOT's traffic logs (http://www.virginiadot.org/info/resources/Traffic_2015/AADT_127_Richmond_2015.pdf) (rather confusingly) show US 33 heading up Hancock Street (not Harrison, oops) from Broad to Leigh, which is US 33. The log shows Leigh to Harrison as VA 33.
More edits in the North Lawrence/Butte County areas, mainly dealing with names and road types (which are pretty spotty out here). There is one involving shifting SD 473 onto its new alignment and trying to eliminate the old one (as they tore it up to mine gold).
Updates:For those of you who have pending edits that have to go to Google for moderation, hang in there. It sometimes takes a bit but will eventually be reviewed.

I see 616 on the stretch that you mentioned on my end, so nothing to change. Removed 589 from the stretch you mentioned but has to go to Google for further moderation. Since the "freeway" portion of FL 60 is so small (only one interchange), I typically would keep it just as a regional highway as it is.

Many "lesser" expressways (i.e. freeways) are just labeled as surface roads and should be marked as freeway or expressway accordingly. Here are a bunch from just Pennsylvania:
- The US 40 section of the Uniontown bypass
- The US 219 Meyersdale bypass
- The US 22/522 Lewistown bypass
- Half of the Johnstown Expressway (PA 56) is not shown as freeway for some reason.
- US 422 around Butler, from the bridge over Benbrook Rd. to east of Mitchell Hill Rd.
- PA 8 from north of I-80 to just south of Franklin, specifically the two intersections with its old alignment.
- The bypasses for US 30 around Bedford and Everett. Arguably McConnellsburg as well, as that bypass is marked as a two-lane freeway on PA's official state maps.
- The US 11/15 Selinsgrove Bypass between just south of the Market St. on-ramp, and the partial cloverleaf where it stub-ends.
- The US 15 expressway around New Milton, New Columbia, and West Deer, between North Ave. and Joe Rd.
- The Harvey Taylor Bridge and its connector to US 11/15 west of Harrisburg.
- US 322/Eisenhower Blvd. between Paxton St. and I-83, as well as between the main part of the Eisenhower Interchange and Mushroom Hill Rd.
- US 30 around York, but only between PA 462 and Kenneth Rd.
- Also in York, the Business 83 connector to I-83 is marked as ramps, despite being long enough to qualify as a distinct road.
- The Commodore Barry Bridge and its approach to I-95 in Chester. (US 130 in NJ between 322 and 295 is also freeway.)
- The Media Bypass (US 1)
- US 13 in Levittown between Fallsington Rd. and US 1.
- The Sellersville Bypass (PA 309)
- For some reason only half of the US 202 part of the Doylestown Bypass is shown as freeway, and not all of it up to the State St. intersection.
- US 209 between PA 33 and I-80 is an expressway (not freeway, due to two intersections in the middle of it).
The MLK Freeway extension (freeway south of VA-141) in Portsmouth, VA is shown as being open, when it is currently 3+ months from completion: https://www.google.com/maps/@36.8331893,-76.3239879,14.75z (https://www.google.com/maps/@36.8331893,-76.3239879,14.75z)
VA-199 isn't a freeway between VA-5 (John Tyler Hwy) and SR-637 (Quarterpath Rd).

That's the part I'm waiting for approval on.
Edit: Ohh, I see what you're saying. Okay, a new request has been put in.
There are many issues in Mexico map I would love to be fixed, but it's a tedious work and long process, been editing past months some segments but unfortunately I'm not a regional leader and my suggestions takes months for approval and editing some misleading paths are a tedious work.
Something I don't like about google maps legend, there are roads that could be easily accepted as main highway like this one in Querétaro (https://goo.gl/maps/bJQoYb5FYWU2), but it takes it as a regular, it might be due highway standards like in US but unfortunately in Mexico that's not an option, rather than having a 4 lanes highway is considered as main highway even if there are non controlled acces and the libre one, my point here is to make a difference which one is "libre" and which one is "cuota" (toll and non toll) and which are primary roads like in the examples. Contrary of what it should be like this case (https://goo.gl/maps/Mqxjcx8iXSn), the highway is market as main highway but there's an irregular access, so applying highway standards in Mexico is not possible.
So there's alot to change in that meaning, also some other roads that are considered rural or unpaved and are a paved road or some are unpaved or rural and considered as main highway like this one (https://goo.gl/maps/sxDQuMgSHW22)... so many issues and so many to fix...
Hope you are interested in fixing (I'll be gladly help or contribute), or forget about it... it's Mexico :sombrero:

There aren't any parameters for marking toll roads in mapmaker, so a regional lead won't be able to help with this one. I'd suggest using "send feedback" link in google maps to report the issue.

For whatever reason this interchange (https://www.google.com/maps/@37.4425771,-77.4495485,17.75z) on VA 150 got an exit number - the exits on VA 150 are unnumbered (and even if they weren't, 25 would not be the right number).

Exit numbers are not a feature that we can edit, so the best course of action is to click on the "send feedback" link in google maps while zoomed to that location and report the issue.
For some reason, I-80 in Pennsylvania is labeled "Christopher Columbus Highway" . Apparently, it is designated as that in Ohio and New Jersey (although I don't recall seeing signs, to be honest), although it is definitely not that in PA. If anything, it's the Z.H.

The segment was mapped, it was just marked as "started" so it was invisible. I've marked it as "completed" but it's pending Google moderation for approval. Once approved it should show up.
That ramp is now showing up on Google Maps. Thanks!

For some reason, it shows as CR 118 West, instead of just CR 118, and it definitely looks weird. Would you be able to fix this?
Thanks :)
That sign is actually correct. I'm not sure why anyone would call a road #West (I'm looking at you I-35E and I-35W).

There's also an edit to show the whole route of WY 113 in eastern Crook County (near Moorcroft/Pine Haven).
For some reason, Theme Park Way (https://www.google.com/maps/@37.8460001,-77.4490416,18.04z) has a "Route 99" shield on it - it's actually frontage road F-099, and should be in a rectangle like other Virginia frontage roads I've seen on Google Maps. In Street View, it shows up as "State Rte 99".
This is almost nitpicking, but this piece of "N 5th St" (https://www.google.com/maps/@37.5556603,-77.4256618,19.29z) is actually 5th Avenue.
This street, Dr. Joseph E. Lowery Boulevard was completed from Governors Drive to Pelham Avenue, and needs to be added:

So basically, it should be reverted back to what it was before, as shown in the quoted screenshot above. This requires changing the section in the screenshot below back to being "118 West" in the flowerpot (i.e. trapezoid) shield.

Thanks for looking into it. Just curious, wouldn't the stretch between US 11E and US 421 be classified as an expressway? Divided median, few intersections, 55 MPH most of the way?
I've had a number of edit requests denied despite being correct.

For some reason, I-80 in Pennsylvania is labeled "Christopher Columbus Highway" . Apparently, it is designated as that in Ohio and New Jersey (although I don't recall seeing signs, to be honest), although it is definitely not that in PA. If anything, it's the Z.H. Confair Memorial Highway or the Keystone Shortway.
No one has responded to my edit request, so I decided to check into the process of making edits myself. If I use the Segment Selector and click anywhere on I-80, it selects a roughly quarter-mile section on one side. If I then click on the Edit drop-down menu, I have the option to Edit this Segment, Edit Entire Interstate 80, or Edit Entire Christopher Columbus Highway. The trouble is, if I select Edit Entire Christopher Columbus Highway, I presume that will also affect the sections in Ohio and New Jersey which are designated as such (even though they're not conspicuously labeled to that effect in those states).
How can I edit I-80 just within the borders of Pennsylvania (but without doing so segment-by-segment)? I read that edits may be subject to a regional moderator–so should I just find the regional mod and ask him/her to make the change?

In Google's terms, an expressway has no at-grade intersections, so no.

Sorry I missed your edit before. As you can tell there are quite a few of them! I am a regional moderator (regional lead = regional moderator). Upon investigation, the problem is much bigger than just Pennsylvania.
When editing a route name, a blue box appears outlining the length of the route. When I clicked "Christopher Columbus Highway", I got this:
(https://www.aaroads.com/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FLPocfM2.png&hash=23b4abdabbecbad79f60b68ff1de654207dbf177)
Yep, Google has I-80 designated as Christopher Columbus Highway from
COAST to COAST. From my research, it is only named such in New Jersey. To be honest, I've never delt with anything this big before. I'll have to figure out how to fix this and go from there.
You have a few choices as to how to deal with this.
1. Use report an issue on a segment and hope for the best for Google to fix it. May take a very long time and may not happen at all.
2. Use edit, select road segments to select large sections of the incorrectly named road, choose edit names, then remove from all by the incorrect name. You could do this one state at a time. When you use the select segments tool you can select one segment, then drag the green icon on the end to a distant point to select multiple segments at once. Keep in mind that it uses navigation logic to do the segment selecting, so always go with the flow (with the one way status of the road for moving point B). You would need to do for one side of the road, then repeat for the opposite site. This will likely require google moderation so after submitting the change be sure to use add a comment on the edit to explain what you are doing and why in detail.
Here's a blog post by another experienced mapper (http://kalijay.blogspot.com/2013/11/the-correct-way-to-rename-road.html) that does a good job of explaining how to rename roads.
Yeah, but Map Maker won't allow me to select more than about a couple of mile's worth of road before throwing an error. That's gonna take quite a while.

If I provide links to government documents showing that I'm correct, the reviewers generally either just ignore me or say that their sources show they're right without giving any explanation of what those sources are. Here are some of my edits that were denied:
Sounds like Rand McNally. I once sent several corrections to them, and the only ones that got changed were the ones I provided satellite imagery or street-view links for. The ones where I dug up the actual project information didn't get changed till years later.
Ha, I've had them completely ignore StreetView evidence as well when it was clear as day.

Yep, same here.
OK, I did an audit of the county route network for Suffolk County, New York, since I know the county routes there better than for any other county. Here's what I found:
* CR 1 ends at Joyce Avenue. The section of County Line Road north of Joyce Avenue is not a county route.
* CR 3 has its southern terminus at New York Avenue, just south of NY 27. The section of Wellwood Avenue south of NY 27 is not a county route.
* CR 14 extends along Indian Head Road from NY 25 to NY 25A. Harned Road south of NY 25 is not a county route.
* Maple Avenue in Smithtown is incorrectly marked as CR 15. It is not a county route.
* A parking lot just north of the western terminus of CR 16 at NY 25 is incorrectly marked as CR 16.
* The section of Yaphank Avenue south of NY 27 should be marked as CR 21, but it is not. Also, it is incorrectly marked as a one-way street. It is actually two-way, but motorists are forced to turn around at the end and can't get onto NY 27.
* Manor Lane and South Jamesport Avenue are incorrectly marked as CR 22. It is not a county route.
* Church Lane is incorrectly marked as CR 23. It is not a county route.
* Longwood Road is incorrectly marked as CR 24. It is not a county route.
* New Suffolk Avenue and New Suffolk Road are incorrectly marked as CR 26. It is not a county route.
* East Lake Drive in Montauk is incorrectly marked as CR 30. It is not a county route.
* Ponquogue Avenue in Hampton Bays is incorrectly marked as CR 32. It is not a county route. Only the Ponquogue Bridge is CR 32.
* Cranberry Hole Road and Napeague Meadow Road are incorrectly marked as CR 33. It is not a county route.
* Manwaring Road on Shelter Island is incorrectly marked as CR 37. It is not a county route.
* Old Stone Highway and Hog Creek Road are incorrectly marked as CR 45. It is not a county route.
* The William Floyd Parkway is designated CR 46, but no route number is shown for it.
* Two Holes of Water Road is not part of CR 59. CR 59 only includes Long Lane.
* Only the section of Waverly Avenue between CR 19 and CR 99 is designated CR 61. The section north of CR 99 is not a county route.
* The section of Newtown Road north of Sunset Avenue is not part of CR 62. CR 62 begins at Montauk Highway (CR 80), follows Newtown Road north to Sunset Avenue, turns right onto Sunset Avenue, and follows it to a dead end along the Shinnecock Canal.
* CR 63 extends north along Peconic Avenue across the Peconic River to end at NY 25 in Riverhead, but no route number is shown on Peconic Avenue.
* Station Road, Bellport Road, and Mill Road are incorrectly marked as CR 64. It is not a county route.
* Old West Lake Drive in Montauk is incorrectly marked as CR 70. It is not a county route.
* Abrahams Landing Road is incorrectly marked as CR 74. It is not a county route.
* CR 76 ends at Nichols Road. The section of Townline Road east of Nichols Road is not a county route.
* Chruch Street is incorrectly marked as CR 78. It is not a county route.
* CR 79 ends at Brick Kiln Road. The section of Main Street north of Brick Kiln Road is not a county route.
* The section of Montauk Highway/Main Street in Patchogue between CR 19 and Bay Avenue, two blocks east of NY 112, is incorrectly marked as CR 80. It is not a county route (unfortunately). CR 80 begins at Bay Avenue.
* East Mill Road in Mattituck is incorrectly marked as CR 84. It is not a county route.
* Little Neck Road in Centerport is incorrectly marked as CR 86. It is not a county route. CR 86 follows Broadway Greenlawn and Centerport Road from NY 25 to NY 25A.
* Speonk-Riverhead Road is incorrectly marked as CR 88. It is not a county route.
* Only a short section of CR 89 in the vicinity of Jessup lane is designated CR 89. The remainder is not a county route.
* CR 92 should include the full length of Oakwood Road and then cut east on High Street to end at NY 110. Right now, it only is only marked on a small portion of Oakwood Road.
* The section of Ocean Avenue south of Lakeland Avenue is incorrectly marked as CR 93. It is not a county route. CR 93 follows Lakeland Avenue, Ocean Avenue, and Rosevale Avenue from NY 27 to CR 16.
* The section of Suffolk Avenue west of CR 13 is incorrectly marked as CR 100. It is not a county route. CR 100 extends from CR 13 to NY 454.
I apologize for the long list, but there was a lot of stuff. If you wish to verify the correctness of these changes, I have an official listing of the county route network that I obtained from NYSDOT available on my web site at http://www.greaternyroads.info/pdfs/sufflhi.pdf. You can also find other documents with the same information on the NYSDOT web site as well.

:crazy: :crazy:
Just kidding, here we go...
Quote* CR 1 ends at Joyce Avenue. The section of County Line Road north of Joyce Avenue is not a county route.
Done.
Quote* CR 3 has its southern terminus at New York Avenue, just south of NY 27. The section of Wellwood Avenue south of NY 27 is not a county route.
Think I got all of CR 3 that was supposed to be removed, but I may have missed a spot.
Quote* CR 14 extends along Indian Head Road from NY 25 to NY 25A. Harned Road south of NY 25 is not a county route.
There was a gap in CR 14 between Somers Lane and Bruce Lane that I connected. CR 14 had already been removed south of NY 25 when I checked, but it may take some time to appear correctly on the map.
Quote* Maple Avenue in Smithtown is incorrectly marked as CR 15. It is not a county route.
This one was also already removed when I checked.
Quote* A parking lot just north of the western terminus of CR 16 at NY 25 is incorrectly marked as CR 16.
Removed successfully.
Quote* The section of Yaphank Avenue south of NY 27 should be marked as CR 21, but it is not. Also, it is incorrectly marked as a one-way street. It is actually two-way, but motorists are forced to turn around at the end and can't get onto NY 27.
Correctly removed the one-way, but Map Maker has an error right now that doesn't allow any of us to add new numbered routes to segments.
Quote* Manor Lane and South Jamesport Avenue are incorrectly marked as CR 22. It is not a county route.
Removed CR 22.
Quote* Church Lane is incorrectly marked as CR 23. It is not a county route.
CR 23 was already removed when I checked. Sometimes it takes a while for numbered routes to disappear when they are removed.
Quote* Longwood Road is incorrectly marked as CR 24. It is not a county route.
Again, already removed.
Quote* New Suffolk Avenue and New Suffolk Road are incorrectly marked as CR 26. It is not a county route.
Removed CR 26 successfully.
Quote* East Lake Drive in Montauk is incorrectly marked as CR 30. It is not a county route.
CR 30 was already removed.
Quote* Ponquogue Avenue in Hampton Bays is incorrectly marked as CR 32. It is not a county route. Only the Ponquogue Bridge is CR 32.
Removed CR 32 from Ponquogue Ave.
Quote* Cranberry Hole Road and Napeague Meadow Road are incorrectly marked as CR 33. It is not a county route.
CR 33 was already removed.
Quote* Manwaring Road on Shelter Island is incorrectly marked as CR 37. It is not a county route.
CR 37 was already removed.
Quote* Old Stone Highway and Hog Creek Road are incorrectly marked as CR 45. It is not a county route.
Removed CR 45 successfully.
Quote* The William Floyd Parkway is designated CR 46, but no route number is shown for it.
Again, unfortunately, we can't currently add new route numbers to existing segments. This is a known issue, but if any other Map Makers know of a work-around, let me know.
Quote* Two Holes of Water Road is not part of CR 59. CR 59 only includes Long Lane.
Removed CR 59 from Two Holes Water Road.
Quote* Only the section of Waverly Avenue between CR 19 and CR 99 is designated CR 61. The section north of CR 99 is not a county route.
I think I fixed it correctly. 61 wasn't labeled south of 99 and north of 19, so I added it. I then removed 61 from Waverly north of it's intersection with Patchouge-Holbrook.
Quote* The section of Newtown Road north of Sunset Avenue is not part of CR 62. CR 62 begins at Montauk Highway (CR 80), follows Newtown Road north to Sunset Avenue, turns right onto Sunset Avenue, and follows it to a dead end along the Shinnecock Canal.
Removed CR 62 from that section of Newtown Road, then added it to Sunset Avenue.
Quote* CR 63 extends north along Peconic Avenue across the Peconic River to end at NY 25 in Riverhead, but no route number is shown on Peconic Avenue.
Extended 63 north to 25, but this edit got sent to Google for further review. I'll check the status.
Quote* Station Road, Bellport Road, and Mill Road are incorrectly marked as CR 64. It is not a county route.
Removed CR 64 successfully.
Quote* Old West Lake Drive in Montauk is incorrectly marked as CR 70. It is not a county route.
CR 70 has already been removed.
Quote* Abrahams Landing Road is incorrectly marked as CR 74. It is not a county route.
Already done.
Quote* CR 76 ends at Nichols Road. The section of Townline Road east of Nichols Road is not a county route.
Removed 76 east of Nichols.
Quote* Chruch Street is incorrectly marked as CR 78. It is not a county route.
Removed CR 78.
Quote* CR 79 ends at Brick Kiln Road. The section of Main Street north of Brick Kiln Road is not a county route.
Removed 79 north of Brick Kiln.
Quote* The section of Montauk Highway/Main Street in Patchogue between CR 19 and Bay Avenue, two blocks east of NY 112, is incorrectly marked as CR 80. It is not a county route (unfortunately). CR 80 begins at Bay Avenue.
Removed CR 80 between 19 and Bay.
Quote* East Mill Road in Mattituck is incorrectly marked as CR 84. It is not a county route.
Removed 84 from E Mill Road.
Quote* Little Neck Road in Centerport is incorrectly marked as CR 86. It is not a county route. CR 86 follows Broadway Greenlawn and Centerport Road from NY 25 to NY 25A.
Removed 86 from Little Neck Road north of 25A.
Quote* Speonk-Riverhead Road is incorrectly marked as CR 88. It is not a county route.
Removed CR 88.
Quote* Only a short section of CR 89 in the vicinity of Jessup lane is designated CR 89. The remainder is not a county route.
I left about a half of a mile on each side of Jessup Lane, and removed the rest.
Quote* CR 92 should include the full length of Oakwood Road and then cut east on High Street to end at NY 110. Right now, it only is only marked on a small portion of Oakwood Road.
Extended CR 92 along the whole length of Oakwood and then onto High to 110.
Quote* The section of Ocean Avenue south of Lakeland Avenue is incorrectly marked as CR 93. It is not a county route. CR 93 follows Lakeland Avenue, Ocean Avenue, and Rosevale Avenue from NY 27 to CR 16.
Removed 93 from Ocean south of Lakeland. Also extended 93 along Ocean Ave between Lakeland and Rosevale, where it was missing.
Quote* The section of Suffolk Avenue west of CR 13 is incorrectly marked as CR 100. It is not a county route. CR 100 extends from CR 13 to NY 454.
Removed 100 from Suffolk west of 13.

Instead of handing out fish it may be time to teach how to fish. You can make your own edits at https://www.google.com/mapmaker (https://www.google.com/mapmaker). Take time to read the help notes and come back here to ask questions on how to do things. Mapmaker is a bit complex and there is some learning curve, but I'm sure the regional leads that are following this thread will be happy to provide assistance.
A good place to learn the basics is by mapping unmapped commercial parking areas (shopping centers and the like). A good tutorial here. (http://kalijay.blogspot.com/2013/11/mapping-your-first-parking-lot.html)
It's something I enjoy doing, and some people perhaps don't want to take the time to sign up, make the edit, and then wait forever for it to be approved. I included a link to Map Maker at the beginning of this thread in the event anyone wants to edit themselves, which some have. Otherwise, I don't mind at all making the edits.

Yep, Google has I-80 designated as Christopher Columbus Highway from COAST to COAST.
From my research, it is only named such in New Jersey. To be honest, I've never delt with anything this big before. I'll have to figure out how to fix this and go from there.
Thanks for getting back to me. Apparently Ohio designated I-80 under that name (http://codes.ohio.gov/orc/5533.31v1), too. But I've driven the entire length of I-80 in both NJ and OH several times, and I can't recall a single instance where "Christopher Columbus Highway" was signed. Ironically, the only such sign I recall ever seeing is on I-10 in Santa Monica–as I-10 is designated as the "Christopher Columbus Transcontinental Highway" though no one refers to it by that name.
Anyway, if I-80 isn't signed as anything other than I-80, wouldn't that be a rationale for deleting the extraneous name altogether, including the sections in OH and NJ? I'm not sure how the data gets populated in various apps and devices, but if people are being directed to "Take exit 116A for Christopher Columbus Highway" with a small 80 shield in the corner, that's bound to lead to pointless confusion.
As a temporary fix, at least so it won't read out "Christopher Columbus Highway", I changed the name to type Local instead of Primary.

The problem with Mapmaker is that it's so cumbersome to use especially if you are a new user. Going back to the NC I-795 example from before, the exit ramp that exists in aerial imagery seems like a perfectly logical addition, but I, as a newbie, can't complete because it crosses an existing road. Even legitimate edits to roads by someone who lives in the area seems to get reverted, I mean, "Please kindly undo your edit," by some guy in India just by a flip of the coin.

Yeah, this is the problem. I've used Google Map Maker in the past, but a lot of the reviewers quite frankly don't know what they're talking about and don't want to be bothered with checking against the appropriate sources.
That's exactly why I made this thread. Before becoming a Regional Lead a few months ago, I had to go through the same mess with getting reviewers that had no idea about the area and simply denied edits with a canned response. I figured I'd help some others out and actually either perform necessary edits or do some simple research and approve where appropriate.

In Google's terms, an expressway has no at-grade intersections, so no.
Actually per Google's definition (https://support.google.com/mapmaker/answer/1098056), a freeway has no at-grade intersections. An expressway can have a few (but very limited) at grade intersections.
Thank you Trevor and cjw (and any other google leaders who may be reading) for this post. Many of us definitely have complained of the inaccuracies with google maps and you've provided a great service. I anticipate that a lot of people will submit to this thread in the future.
Mods: Please keep an eye on this thread. I believe that the work Trevor and cjw are doing is so important that it may merit a sticky. A thread like this can easily get lost amongst the many threads in the "General" group and there are plenty of people on here who complain about google maps. Like it or not it is the most used mapping source today (more than online competitors and even some of the paper maps, unless you want historical information) and we can provide a great service to the public if we use our knowledge base to help make it more accurate.

Glad we could help. Haven't seen any public threads like this for people who may not be familiar with or know how to use Map Maker. Even if they do, the review process for normal users is painstaking, as some may know.
These seemed to pass by without a mention, so I'm going to bring them up again.

The MLK Freeway extension (freeway south of VA-141) in Portsmouth, VA is shown as being open, when it is currently 3+ months from completion: https://www.google.com/maps/@36.8331893,-76.3239879,14.75z (https://www.google.com/maps/@36.8331893,-76.3239879,14.75z)
VA-199 isn't a freeway between VA-5 (John Tyler Hwy) and SR-637 (Quarterpath Rd).
The MLK Freeway portion is especially important, as I know quite a few people who have gotten lost in Portsmouth b/c GMaps told them that the road was open
Both are done but are sent off for Google moderation.
More ghosts of decommissioned routes haunting Virginia Beach:
VA 408 is not on First Colonial Road (https://www.google.com/maps/@36.8738159,-76.0373373,17z) between VA 279 and I-264 anymore. This route also carries a SR 615 shield that needs to be removed...but there's a bunch of old secondary routes that are labeled on Google Maps despite not existing, and that's gonna take more time for me to list.
As for SR 615, it needs to be removed from First Colonial Road, Oceana Blvd, General Booth Blvd, and Princess Anne Rd (all the way to the NC border).

I tried. I'd like to do edits, but after my corrections of US Route 52 in Lafayette, IN got rejected, I just gave up and let it remain incorrect on the map. It should be off Sagamore between US 231 and Teal Road and go south with US 231 to IN 25, turn east onto a road Google doesn't have a name for, northeast on Old US 231, then east on Teal until hopping onto Sagamore going southeast. Google rejected it immediately, so I didn't bother with it anymore.
I still see your edits pending, but they look to be corrupted. Meaning they were probably denied but the map still shows them as a pending edit. Unfortunately, because of this, the features are locked because of the "pending edit". If you could look back, find the edits, and undo them, I can fix it for you.
CR 118 West has been successfully reverted, thanks again TrevorB!
This time I have an edit which I'm confident in. :-D Google Maps shows ON 51, when it should be CR 15. ON 51 was downloaded in 1997 (http://www.thekingshighway.ca/Highway51_2.htm), and checking GSV, you can clearly see this CR 15 shield.

After seeing a lot of frustration with Google Maps on the board (and rightfully so), I thought I would step in to help. I'm a Google Map Maker Regional Lead, meaning essentially any edit I make through the Map Maker (http://www.google.com/mapmaker) program is automatically approved.
Therefore, if you have an issue with a road (or anything on the map), please post them below and I'll try to get to them. Also, if you're a Map Maker user and have an edit pending approval, you can link to the edit below and I'll approve it.
Hope I can help!
THANK YOU! takes me forever
so if I'm in Austin at Loop 1 & US 183 and if I want to go to Walgreens at the NW corner of 183 & Duval, google maps will not allow you to go west on Duval. you either have to go a few miles up to the next exit or double back around. this was 2 weeks ago maybe the glitch has been fixed.

After seeing a lot of frustration with Google Maps on the board (and rightfully so), I thought I would step in to help. I'm a Google Map Maker Regional Lead, meaning essentially any edit I make through the Map Maker (http://www.google.com/mapmaker) program is automatically approved.
Therefore, if you have an issue with a road (or anything on the map), please post them below and I'll try to get to them. Also, if you're a Map Maker user and have an edit pending approval, you can link to the edit below and I'll approve it.
Hope I can help!
THANK YOU! takes me forever
so if I'm in Austin at Loop 1 & US 183 and if I want to go to Walgreens at the NW corner of 183 & Duval, google maps will not allow you to go west on Duval. you either have to go a few miles up to the next exit or double back around. this was 2 weeks ago maybe the glitch has been fixed.
I see that but I have no idea what the issue is. I've looked around and can't find why the directions don't direct you straight onto the ramp onto Research and then onto Duval. I'll keep looking.
Also RR 2222 heading west from I-35 is Really TX-69 but it is unsigned. Great for us map people but anyone else will be routed onto 69 and no one will know what that is.

Additionally, there are numerous data corrections (no auto traffic-ing roads through lakes and roads through private fields, new roads, fixed road names, etc.) throughout the whole of Crook County WY (mainly near Pine Haven and Keyhole) and in northern Lawrence County SD.
Approved all of the ones I could find. Let me know if I missed any.
There's a few more name fixes near Spearfish (N Tinton Rd, Tom Ct, 100th St, Beaver Oaks Pl, Voorhees Ln), one more road that doesn't actually exist in Keyhole Reservoir, a lake that is a field near McNenny SFH (the deletion needs to be approved), and an edit to extend the WY 113 markings into Pine Haven itself (to Lakeview Dr).
There's also a new development called the Timbers, but I can't find where those edits were.
Many of these aren't showing up for me. If you don't mind, link to the specific edits by clicking your pending edit and grabbing the link from the chain button on the top left. I can approve them easier that way.
If this is wrong, let me know.

I know of several county routes in Florida that are still listed as being state highways, despite having been downgraded years ago.
I'll compile a list later, but the ones I can think of at the moment are CR 269A in Chattahoochee, FL; CR 286 in Sneads Florida; and CR 280 in Grand Ridge, FL.
NC 12 ends at the entrance to the Ocean Hill community, roughly where the green area begins in this link. (https://www.google.com/maps/@36.3823954,-75.8313821,18.13z) Unfortunately, the unnamed beach road that goes all the way up to the VA/NC line has "route 12" shields on it.

I'll throw in 162 in Jacob City, still shown as a SR between SR 273 and US 231, but should be a CR like the rest of the route.

No problem! Removed ON 51 and extended CR 15 southward onto that segment, pending Google approval since it's in Canada.
Thanks TrevorB! Here's one more for you ;-)
Erbsville Ct in Waterloo, ON is labelled as Regional Road 16, even though this document from the Region of Waterloo (http://www.regionofwaterloo.ca/en/gettingAround/resources/Regional_Roads_By_Name.pdf) doesn't list it as a Regional Road. Not to mention, Regional Road 16 is already assigned to Kressler Rd. So basically, I'm asking you to get rid of the RR 16 designation on Erbsville Ct. Thanks again :)

Problems:
1) CR 77 was decommissioned before 2014.
2) Miller Road is now CR 100.
3) Peters Road is now CR 101.
4) The Miller Road/Cascade Road bridge was imploded in June and right now the roads end at ex-CR 77/current CR 85 (Schwartz Road) one one side and Scoby Hill Road on the other.

1.) I removed the CR 77 road name. The other name that was already on the road remains.
2.) street view shows the Miller Road name so I've not made a change.
3.) street view shows the Peters Road name so I've not made a change.
4.) Can you provide confirming information for this? (Link to a news story will do.)
Part of our responsibilities as regional leads is to only approve/change what we can validate, so any information you can provide for validating changes is helpful.

Has construction started on the replacement yet? If so I could mark it "started" which would make is disappear from the map until marked completed. Otherwise I could mark it "planned"
There was post-implosion work going on on June 14, when I was last there.
Also, I forgot I submitted this:

CR 323 is not that road out of Brant, CR 9 is the entire road north to NY 5. NY 323 was decommissioned in 1988 and replaced by an extended CR 9. There isn't a CR 323 in Erie County.

It appears there's a section of US-281 near the junction with TX-6 along which Google Maps will not route a trip or let you drop an endpoint.
Interesting. Maybe they closed it to build our bypass.
Just as a heads up, a new section of I-295 in Fayetteville, NC just opened to traffic today. The new section runs from US-401/Ramsey Street to Bragg Boulevard. Based on the pic in the following link, it is fully signed as I-295. The old existing section from US-401/Ramsey Street to the I-95/US-13 interchange will remain as NC-295/Future I-295 until two substandard bridges are widened and the I-95/US-13 interchange upgraded.

Looks like someone has already changed a bunch of segments on the mainline from "started" to "completed", pending Google's approval. Nothing more I can do for that high of a priority road.
I did approve some ramps (and followed by some deletions of some really crappy user edits that weren't actually connected to anything. I'll keep looking to see what else I can clean up without Google's involvement.

QuoteNASHVILLE — The Tennessee Department of Transportation has received approval from the Federal Highway Administration to designate State Route 840 as Interstate 840. The change was requested to encourage more economic growth along the corridor and more traffic diversion around Middle Tennessee's urban core.
TDOT will begin installing I-840 signage next week, and expects the work to be complete late this year.
Yes I saw that and already tried (and failed) to submit the edit yesterday. I did a "report this" instead. No idea how long it will be until Google notices.
Mapmaker is buggy at the moment and numbered highway edits are next to impossible to submit right now.
Since the above is a major change I escalated the request directly to Google. We will see what happens.
I see somebody re-added the IN-912 Cline Ave bridge, even though it hasn't been in existence for 7 years. Sure, they are planning on replacing it, but they haven't even started constructing it yet (they are working on the offices first for the 'toll' bridge). At least you can't route over it, but still, it shouldn't be shown on the map.

Someone had marked it as a "parking lot" segment which should never be done for named streets. Fixed it.

Pretty hard to be "closed for maintenance" when the bridge was completely torn down for 6 some years and the new alignment might be completely different. lol.

Looks like I was mistaken about the road's designation. Recent photos taken of the new segment confirms that, like the old section from US-401/Ramsey Street to I-95/US-13 interchange, it is actually signed as NC-295, not I-295.
The I-295 sign shown in NCDOT's photo was just used as a prop for the ribbon-cutting ceremony. The I-295 sign is no longer there.

I see that the map now shows the new I 840 labels.
While looking at the new I-840 labeling, I noticed someone has jumped the gun and labeled the US 51 corridor in TN between Memphis and Dyersburg as I-69, while the section in KY between I-24 and Fulton has no labeling. BTW, isn't the highway between I-40 and US 51 supposed to just be TN 385 for now (instead of I-269)?

I submitted some edits to remove parts of the I-69 labels, although I wasn't able to get 100% due to other pending edits. What I did so far is pending google approval. Likely I'll need to go back for another round of edits later assuming (big assumption) these get approved.
I don't know if it is possible for US leads to make edits in Canada...maybe someone can help me?

Also, the loops of the Parclo's are done incorrectly (should be more gradual and not enter 45 degrees into the freeway). There is Streetview showing the alignment. The road west of Campbell Drive (to Scheel Drive) should be marked freeway, and should be 417 (not 17).
Every time I try to do it myself, it either gets denied or ignored. :-(
If it's not possible to do, I'll report it to Google directly.
"Broadway Avenue" in Everett, Washington should actually read "Broadway".
The city dropped the Avenue decades ago.

"Broadway Avenue" in Everett, Washington should actually read "Broadway".
The city dropped the Avenue decades ago.
Fixed. I see in the feature history that it was just Broadway at one point, but unable to see when/who added the Avenue. Might take a bit of time before it shows up on the map.

Also, the loops of the Parclo's are done incorrectly (should be more gradual and not enter 45 degrees into the freeway). There is Streetview showing the alignment. The road west of Campbell Drive (to Scheel Drive) should be marked freeway, and should be 417 (not 17).

I didn't think you guys could do it since you're regional mods, which makes sense. The last satellite coverage of that area was 2010, so hopefully some new one comes out soon. Thanks for looking into it though. :cheers:

I see somebody re-added the IN-912 Cline Ave bridge, even though it hasn't been in existence for 7 years. Sure, they are planning on replacing it, but they haven't even started constructing it yet (they are working on the offices first for the 'toll' bridge). At least you can't route over it, but still, it shouldn't be shown on the map.

It's marked as "closed for maintenance". I submitted an edit to change to "started" which would make is disappear on the map. Pending Google moderation.
This change finally got approved last night.
I-295 around Fayetteville, NC is only signed as NC 295, not as an Interstate. It's also only open west to NC 24/87, not all the way to the All-American Freeway.

The part to All-American Freeway is already marked as closed for maintenance, so navigation won't try to use it.
Noted this one while going through some old Mississippi pages on the site this week.
Mississippi 605 should be dropped north of the interchange with Mississippi 67. The alignment north and west (Traditions Parkway) is not a part of MS 605 and is locally maintained:

I've removed the MS 605 name. A Street view signs say Tradition Parkway not Traditions Parkway so I left the singular name and removed the plural.
Colorado State Highway 196 should only extend from US-50 (south of McClave) to US-287 (near Wiley). Yet it's shown on Google Maps all the way to US-50 south of Hartman. The portion between US-287 and US-385 was decommissioned in 2010, so it's halfway understandable. But the portion west of US-385 hasn't been a state highway since 1970.

Most of it is already mapped with construction status = started. Goto mapmaker.google.com, Use edit, select segments to select the segments, then update the construction status to completed and submit the edit (include some notes in the note field as to why you are changing). Since this is a regional highway priority it will require google approval whether you do it or a regional lead does it.

I did that. As I mentioned in the post, I was hoping to alert TrevorB or someone else with the appropriate permissions to approve the changes and see if there's anything I missed.
Frankly the edit interface is way too clunky for anything beyond a single segment compared to either iD or JOSM. Guess I'll just stick to updating OSM...

Time to add the Willits Bypass (US-101 in California). It just opened.
The alignment of I-5 is changed a little because of the new Lakehead Bridge over the Sacramento River coming into Lake Shasta. That's been open for a while.
The Hinkley Bypass just west of Barstow has cut most of the N/S streets between CA-58 and Community Blvd. A week ago, only Dixie was open, and it looked like the Hinkley overpass would open very soon, and the Lenwood overpass shortly thereafter (after which Dixie will be cut). But Summerset, Fairview, Mountain View, Livingston are now permanently cut.
I-5 at the Antlers Bridge replacement is done. The bypasses will be a lot more work given the lack of recent satellite imagery in those areas.
There are a couple of things I noticed on Google maps tonight that I thought I'd post it here to see if it can be fixed. Both are in Florida, more specifically in Lee County (Fort Myers/Lehigh Acres area):

Joel Boulevard between Lehigh Acres and SR 80 is labeled as both CR 884 and SR 873 when it should only be shown as the former. SR 873 has been decommissioned since the late 1970s/early 1980s. I will say personally I enjoy seeing this decommissioned numbering, but it is an error nonetheless.

From what I can see Richel Lodge is a separate place from Red Lodge which is further down the road.
A google search found "The headquarters for the Bureau crew was located at a dude ranch known as Richel Lodge about 20 miles west of Red Lodge, Montana."
In PA (or at least in the Philly area), roads are being identified by Quadrant Route numbers, which aren't posted for drivers' consumption. These numbers shouldn't be the primary ID on maps, let alone during navigation.

Same thing was happening in OSM till I helped everybody get on the same page.
Got a doozy of nitpicking for you.
General area of discussion:
https://www.google.com/maps/@33.0959126,-86.0057162,14.75z
Prospect Road, which comes south off of AL 63 right to the east of AL 9, is a dirt road. I do not believe Google Maps has it tagged as such.
Where Prospect Road peels off of Pearson Chapel Road per Google Maps further south of AL 63, it becomes a private road, at least by function. There's a gate at the northern end at the split and, if you follow Old Ashland Highway from the south, which also becomes a dirt road near where Google has "Mount Pleasant Church" marked, you end up coming to this:
(https://c3.staticflickr.com/1/550/31404235442_5f78386aeb_k.jpg) (https://flic.kr/p/PR5V6d)Prospect Road Alabama Google Maps Mistake (https://flic.kr/p/PR5V6d)
So, it's gated from both sides.
Pearson Chapel Road is also dirt from the split with Prospect Road down south to a point just north of Dillard Road. Viewable on the satellite view.
...
I am uncertain about how all the road names work out here as well. Where Google has Old Ashland Highway and Old Ashland Road intersect, I do wonder if the track east of that intersection is Prospect Road. Still, there's no proof of that, other than a street blade indicating that Old Ashland Highway goes south at that T (i.e., there's no distinction in the field between Old Ashland Highway and Old Ashland Road). Signage is, of course, nearly nonexistent otherwise; changing the names around would require further investigation.
The road attribute was already set to "unpaved".
Since there isn't any street view and no easy way to tell what's private vs public I changed the road priority from the split south all the way to old ashland road to be "terminal" instead of "local".
That will prevent the navigation application from trying to use that routing for any through traffic.

Hey thanks for having this one cleared up! I actually forgot about sending in that request until today. Yes, SR 78 is still labeled on the CR 78 portion, but if you zoom in close enough you get both state and county shields. I might try the link you posted and make my suggestion, just to see what happens.

Thanks much. Wonder why it didn't show up as unpaved when I got directions sending me through there, but no biggie.

Fairly major error in central Pennsylvania near the MD state line: Williamsport Pike south of Greencastle, PA, which is an unnumbered road, is shown as partly PA 63 and partly PA 887. 63 has never existed here (though it does exist in the Philly area), despite it becoming MD 63 at the Mason-Dixon line, and PA 887 has never existed anywhere, so I don't know where they got that number from. (Note that PA 163 at the MD line briefly turns down Williamsport Pike to end at MD 63.)
When making requests, be sure to include a link to the location on Google maps. Much easier to find if you do so (and therefore more likely that someone can follow up).

What I'm seeing is that there's a veer right within the tunnel followed by a right turn outside to Madison Ave., which has full street view and does not appear to have any signs restricting that usage or any ticket or gates. Seems like a viable route to me, even if it's a little convoluted.

I'm not going to disagree that it's ridiculous, but you'll have to take that up with your state, since that appears to be an officially posted route for accessing additional parking areas off Madison. There isn't a way to restrict that segment without either it becoming entirely useless or breaking directions that tell people to take Swan to the arterial to access the Interstate. If you adjust the destination marker, you'll find that there's only 3 blocks worth of destinations that actually use that particular routing (SE of Eagle it uses the Madison exit from the Interstate, and NW of Swan it goes through Washington Park, so it seems to be routing pretty much the way it should.

Given the situation, the directions need to state that you follow the additional parking signs or signs for P-1 South. Just a blank "turn right" causes confusion ("Really? I turn here?").
Bring up the directions and click the Send Feedback link at the bottom right and report that. A lot of the minutiae of directions (lane assist, exit numbers, "follow signs for", and so forth) can only be modified by Google themselves.
Someone marked Palouse Cove Road near Palouse, WA as an extension of Idaho 66. The road is not a state highway in Washington.
Another nitpick:

This section of Thunder Road (to the rear parking lot, anyway) is only for authorized vehicles for the Colonie Fire Department (see pavement markings/signs: https://goo.gl/maps/2oNeLLNAeNC2).
Google typically routes you around it, but it seems it is still possible to be routed on the illegal side road. There are a lot of Village offices behind the Fire Department, so this could be an issue.

When I do a search of the address "31 East Fifth Street, Media, PA 19063" , Google's search results pinpoint the address at the correct location on the map, but it "autocorrects" the address as "31 E 5th St, Chester, PA 19013" . But Media is definitely not Chester; it's not in the same ZIP code or the same municipality. There is a 31 East Fifth Street in Chester–about six miles away.
If you search "31 E 5th St, Chester, PA 19013" , Google pinpoints the location in Media–not Chester. And if you attempt to create a routing from "31 E 5th Street, Media" to "31 E 5th St, Chester" , you get a zero-mile trip at one point.
Neither the USPS ZIP code search nor Apple Maps have any trouble correctly distinguishing between these two addresses.
Can anyone figure this out?
There are a bunch of places in the real location that have the city set to Chester and the ZIP code set to 19013 instead of the correct Media/19063. My guess is that somehow addressing got screwed up on that street and it was carried over to all the places along there (places meaning any point feature, including businesses, address, etc.). I reported the error so there's at least a chance that it will get fixed at some point.

My request about Shell reverted back. We do not close at 5 pm!!!
The POI shows as a claimed business, so likely it's being uploaded directly from whoever owns the POI. I took a quick look on the history tab and saw lots of updates from Google. Does Shell maintain any central data that they provide to Google for all stations?
You can go directly to this link and edit the hours https://mapmaker.google.com/mapmaker?gw=39&fid=0x8644cc3933b99d73:0x58605f91a60385c5
Oddly the hours are correct re that link but when I use google maps to navigate there it still thinks it closes at 5 pm.
The Twin Cities area they seem to be behind in showing off-road bicycle trails. Another section of the Mississippi River Regional Trail is open, starting here.
https://www.google.com/maps/place/Hastings,+MN+55033/@44.8120912,-93.0397979,54m/data=!3m1!1e3!4m5!3m4!1s0x87f7c14c19f418a7:0xb116e6025142627e!8m2!3d44.7443293!4d-92.8513706!5m1!1e3
You can follow the trail:
South along Cahill
South along Inver Grove Trail to 100th / Inver Grove
SouthWest along the railroad tracks.
South Along Courthouse Blvd until it vears off into the woods to the southeast here

You can see the clearing for building it through the part as it twists it's way south then west, ending here

Also the Minnesota River Bottoms area is a mess. The segment running northeast from Old Cedar is dirt

Most of which is not shown.
Here's a map someone else made showing the general locations
https://www.mtbproject.com/trail/6126495/minnesota-river-bottoms-lyndale-ave-to-bloomington-ferry-rd
Here the Nokomis- Minnesota River Regional Trail has a gap, it should extend all the way up to American, then along the side of American to 12th. Although it looks like a sidewalk this is actually officially the trail.

Here the N-MR Trail extends on the east side of Cedar (not yet visable in aerial, is on Street view, to 68th, on the north side of 68th to 18th, up the west side of 18th/ Richfield Parkway until it meets the end shown on the map here.

Google closed Mapmaker on March 31, 2017. There will be no further action by Regional Leads to do edits in Mapmaker since Mapmaker and Regional Leads no longer exist.
Moderators feel free to close this thread.

There is no need to lock this thread. If there is no are no more posts, the thread will die naturally.
How are edits being handled then?

I read somewhere (I think in the "Map Maker is closing" explanation) that standard Google Maps will allow edits.
There are limited editing options (mainly for points of interest) in google maps. For road, the options are extremely limited at this time (mainly the ability to report problems but no direct mapping). Further options may come down the road.
Basically mapmaker had gotten very old, very buggy, and very hard to support for Google so they decided to pull the plug on it. They promise to add more editing capabilities directly in maps in the future but time will tell.
Currently, you need to be a Level 3 (or higher) Local Guide to be able to edit everything (I think).

That's quite possible -- I started out at a Level 5 due to previous carryover experience points from Mapmaker so I've not experienced the interface without that level.
Western Mass classification corrections:
- MA Route 116 should be displayed as a freeway until just after the N Hadley Road interchange, then a super-2 to the MA-63 intersection.
I was going to add US-5 in W Springfield but someone already got to it
(The real) CT 31 north of US 44 is marked as CR 31 (CR's don't exist in CT).

Mapmaker is no longer available for former Regional Leads to do edits - you need to use "report a data problem" directly in Google maps and report the issue directly to Google. Right click on the map to bring up the menu to select the option to report a data problem. If that option doesn't show up then use the send feedback link at the bottom instead.

The southern end of IN 111 is not routed properly on Google Maps. Google Maps shows it turning north on Old Dam 43 Rd SE and winding its way north and west to IN 11 at Laconia. It actually turns south on Old Dam 43 Rd SE and dead ends at the Ohio River

I'll edit the thread title saying that mapmaker is now closed to help prevent this some.
