Title: ISL: TH49 is not signed in the west

Today, I drove the road in both directions from the roundabout with Ánanaust to Suðurströnd and walked eastbound. I couldn't spot any number.
I also drove eastbound from the roundabout. I also checked the rear mirror. The first sign indicated 49 is here (https://www.google.com/maps/@64.1380686,-21.9381596,3a,15y,332.71h,88.46t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sNIr-pYF2rL5D_QbxQGHD-Q!2e0!7i13312!8i6656). I suggest truncating the route till the next "major" junction, i.e. to the roundabout with Suðurgata.

On the one hand, the currently mapped endpoint is the official endpoint per https://vegasja.vegagerdin.is/eng/

On the other hand I have cut other routes short in cases where signage disappears before the official end, though typically only if it makes a substantial difference in how far the route goes. So the question is whether this counts as a substantial difference.

I dunno, I'm on the fence. Anyone else have an opinion?

I'd minimum truncate TH49 to the roundabout with Ánanaust, which we have in HB as "AnaNau" wp. Because the main route turns here.
However, I'd even truncate it to the first roundabout after the last sign, i.e. to Suðurgata roundabout as suggested above.

With no further comments I'm going no-build on this
