It also doesn't matter what type of road it is, here the M6 is a motorway and the dartford tunnel is an A road and both show with the correct scheme colours.
I've raised a question with TTCS, let's see what words of wisdom they come back with

London congestion charge zone
Roads within the London congestion charge zone are indicated as toll roads in the road type, but do not show as toll roads in mapview (toll road colours, as indicated in colour scheme are not used). Is there any way to correct this?

I don't want it corrected!
I'd like to know how they do it, but I don't want the whole of London's streets turning green. Shocked

I've put together my own schemes and all toll roads are shown in the same colour whether they are a motorway or a minor bridge that has a small toll charge.

I'm sure you don't really want the whole of central London to have the same colour roads so that you can't easily tell the difference between a major through road and a residential side street. Confused

I suspect the single roads are marked as "toll road" and show the toll road colours and in London they are marked as "road within a toll area" or similar internally. I wouldn't expect CS to know though. Very Happy

Hmm, good point... It would be good if you could just alter the edge colour though

I've got the CC POI which works fine, but only shows the entries into the zone, and with the coridor through Park Lane / Edgware Rd, can be a little confusing as to which side is in or out of the zone.


I think you will find that both sides are in the Zone.

Thanks for your email. I am afraid there is no way to change the way the London congestion charge zone is shown on the One 30 series device.

If you do have any further questions or need further support please do not hesitate to contact me back and i will be more than happy to help you further.

With Kind Regards

Richard
