M-6 (Michigan highway)

Class:  Featured article

Action required: Correction to map.

Comments: The M-6 map was created in 2006 using the GIS data available at the time. A recent conversation with an official MDOT brought to my attention that west of the 8th Avenue interchange in Ottawa County, M-6 turns northward and not northwestward to intersect I-196. Please create a map with an inset to replace File:Michigan 6 map.png before November 20 (UTC) because M-6 is going to be the TFA on the Main Page on that date.

M-553 (Michigan highway) and M-554 (Michigan highway)

Class:  Featured article

Action required: New map

Comments: Can someone make a new map, perhaps with an inset that shows M-554 as well as M-553. I'm looking at merging the two together in the near future, and it would be nice to have an updated map to reflect the merger. Imzadi 1979 → 15:29, 10 January 2012 (UTC)

@Imzadi1979: I added M-554 to M-553's KML by going off of the description in the article. Can you verify if it's correct? –Fredddie™ 14:21, 21 September 2013 (UTC)

Route 139 (New Jersey)

Class:  Good article

Action required: Correction to existing map

Comments: The current info map highlights the lower level roadway from mile post 0 to 1.45. The red highlighting should continue east where Rte 139 runs concurrently with I-78 along 14th and 12th streets and into the Holland Tunnel until the NY state line at mile post 2.77. If possible, there is also a small leg of the upper level roadway (Rte 139U) at its western terminus that should be red highlighted. This missing leg starts at intersection of John F. Kennedy Boulevard and Hoboken Avenue and continues just past Collard Street, where Hoboken Avenue then runs directly over the lower roadway.Wondering55 (talk) 01:55, 26 April 2013 (UTC)

Class:  Start-Class article

Action required: Correction to existing map

Comments: Copied and pasted here for greater visibility. –Fredddie™
The image for this article incorrectly shows MD 125 extending east to MD 26/Liberty Road, when, in fact, it ends a few miles west of MD 26 (per the text of the article). I'd change the image, but, unfortunatly, it is in a raster format, instead of a vector format, which makes any changes messy. Does anyone know if there is an SVG version of it available?

California State Route 91

  • Class:  C-Class article
  • Action required: Correction to existing KML file?
  • Comments: CA 91's westernmost segment between CA 1 and Vermont Ave/I-110 was relinquished to local control, and no longer part of a state highway -- in other words, the highway's official western terminus is now at Vermont Ave/I-110. This content is reflecting in the prose of the article. The map file File:California State Route 91.svg indicates the relinquished segment in pink while the official segment is in red, but there is no such distinction in the KML file. This may be confusing to readers when sources like Google Maps also do not currently mark this segment as part of CA 91, but other sources like Bing Maps currently do (for example, compare various maps at 33°52′22″N 118°20′31″W / 33.87284°N 118.34201°W / 33.87284; -118.34201 (CA 91) where the relinquished segment intersects with I-405). Thus, what is the best course of action to take? Zzyzx11 (talk) 07:48, 14 October 2013 (UTC)

Georgia State Route 117

@Morriswa: Could you provide a KML? The base map data I have does not show the Dublin bypass over which SR 117 travels. –Fredddie™ 03:22, 29 December 2013 (UTC)
I'm at work now, so I can't do that. If you use Google Street View, you will see that SR&nsbp;117 travels along the Dublin bypass (clearly marked). Allen (Morriswa) (talk) 03:37, 29 December 2013 (UTC)
I think he means that his GIS data doesn't show the bypass, not that he doesn't know where it is. TCN7JM 03:42, 29 December 2013 (UTC)
TCN7JM is correct. Without a KML, I can select the road segments manually and go from there. In this case, there are no road segments to select. –Fredddie™ 04:02, 29 December 2013 (UTC)

@Thewombatguru: Thank you for making the first draft on the KML file, but there are a couple mistakes in the routing. 1) US 220 exits off I-73/I-74 at Ellerbe (exit 25/google still has 8) and merges with I-73/I-74 between Candor and Emery (exit 41/google still has 24). 2) Southbound US 220, in Greensboro, is routing off Battleground Avenue onto Westover Terrace and then onto Wendover Avenue; the correct southbound routing stays on Battleground Avenue onto Wendover Avenue, northbound there is correct. Those two things, and the Southbound routing going into Virginia to u-turn back into NC, and it should then be correct. --WashuOtaku (talk) 14:33, 17 May 2014 (UTC)
@Washuotaku: I fixed the U-turn in Virginia, sorry, I thought I checked that at every KML. Also the problem with Westover Terrace is fixed, I'll upload it later today.
