LA: Waypoints
« on: November 02, 2024, 09:44:18 pm »
Can shaping points be added to the following routes:

LA I-20 - between 171 and 173 to remove overlap with LA 601
LA LA77 - between SlaBr and LA76_S to remove overlap with LA 411

Waypoint name issues:

LA LA1 - OldLA1247 -> BruRd and move southeast to intersection.
LA LA308 - OldLA1247 ->  ?     -  The street is not signed here, but it doesn't appear to be Brule Rd. like it is for LA 1.
LA LA378 - IsleCapBlvd -> HorDr      -  The street is not signed here, but there was a name change due to the casino rebranding.  The intersection for LA 379 is re-signed, as seen below.
LA LA379 - IsleCapBlvd -> HorDr
LA LA496 - CalSt -> CalDr
LA LA993 - LA69 -> LA69/405

I don't maintain LA, but...
TM's data is intended to be pretty low granularity. IMO a small overlap (as in route traces on mapview, not concurrencies) such as this is not a big deal at all, and won't confuse the viewer as to what's going on.

LA LA1 - OldLA1247 -> BruRd and move southeast to intersection.
LA LA308 - OldLA1247 ->  ?     -  The street is not signed here, but it doesn't appear to be Brule Rd. like it is for LA 1.
Here, the bridge was most certainly selected as the point location; the opportunities to cross the river are somewhat few.
Compare, also on LA308: GalBr, CoteBlaBr, 28thSt, BayPorDr, ValBri, BriRd, StChaBr, StJohnBr...
For a case like this where there's no known current road name, but the road formerly had a numbered designation, using an "OldLA1247" style label is SOP.

That makes sense.  Thanks for the clarification!
