like google maps or mapquest that is updated to show the new 540 extensions to both 264 and 55? 9/4/2007 4:54:09 PM |

WRAL has it on their traffic maps but that isn't very useful for plotting a route. I actually posted a question in the Google Maps group a while back about how often new roads are updated but got zero responses 9/4/2007 5:06:08 PM |

yes- it's very aggravating, but not to the point where i need to write to my congressman
someone update this when it's fixed
add: i'm going to write to mapquest about it. maybe they've addressed the situation, but i don't feel like pouring over their broad FAQs

There are two exits on that extension.
Do you really really need a map for that? 9/4/2007 6:03:59 PM |

Google doesnt directly control the street data, they get it from NAVTEQ and TeleAtlas

complaining to Google will not do you any good
*** You can request that NAVTEQ update their maps here http://mapreporter.navteq.com/dur-web-external/secured/submitDur.do

i'm like an old man and i like to know the quickest and most efficient route. sure, i could get out there with my tripometer and check things out, but i'd like to save the gas and paper charts.9/5/2007 3:08:25 PM |

I requested one a while back, and it does have the extension to 264, but not the 55 side, yet.
It's no google, but it gets the job done. 9/6/2007 8:01:49 PM |
