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. _________________ Brian

Sorry but I update via netbook , so don't have pictures available.
Map Europe_West v860.3102
Starting at A34/A4130 interchange:
A34 Priors Hill
A34 Maesyrodyn
A34 Impney Way
A34 Gwelfor
A34 Pennyroyal
A34 The Withys
A34 Pennyroyal
A34 Stanford Road
A34 Gwelfor
A34 Velthouse Lane
A34 Saint Peter's Way
A34 Queen's Avenue
A34 Saint Stephen's Court
A34 Grove Farm Lane
A34 Grove Hill
A34 Priors Grange
A34 Priors Hill
A34 Impney Way

All before getting to Oxford.
I have just checked south of my start point and find that the same errors occur on the northbound A34 with more names. _________________ Brian

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

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. _________________ Brian

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.... _________________ Be alert.. This country needs more lerts. |
