On trying out the latest maps, the A34 going north from Didcot seems to be split up into sections with strange names, some sound welsh.

If I do that route via Prepare Route, the only one I get in View as text is the A34 Gwelfor. As far as I know Gwelfor is in North Wales.

Something is very wrong Rolling Eyes

But what's new, this is TomTom after all Laughing

If you go to browse map and then click on the A34 northbound near Didcot you will see that only a short section will be highlighted, such as A34 Maesyrodyn. Click on another section and another name is displayed. I have tried to change the name but you cannot just name it A34 as this comes up with A34 A34 and each section has to be changed.

I wouldn't bother trying to get TeleAtlas to change/correct it, I've been trying to get the A358 Taunton - Williton road corrected for 18 months and yet these muppets (for a better phrase/name) say their mapping is correct.

The whole damned lot of them want.... Gun Shoot Out
