Missing A46

Kenny Rodkiss · May 15, 2003

While making up a route for Germany in June, I had trouble getting the route to go South on the A46 heading to Meschede.
When I zoomed in to see what the problem was I found this.
On a paper map the A46 joins the B7 as it also does on Autoroute but not on v4.11 of Mapsource.
Is this fixed on v5?

Does happen....

Was in Southern Spain following this nice road, suprised at the lack of traffic till this ditch cut through the road at right angles (bout a 2 ft drop, 6 ft wide) arrived which brought a mild expression from my lips....

I gently traversed the gully to travel a bit futher to find a f*%cking motorway crossed the road at a 45 degree angle....

....it is just the buggers don't keep the maps up-to-date or are not told about things like new motorways as they are only minor alterations to the map...

V5?

Easiest (and cheapest for you) is to have a look at the V5 viewer on the Garmin cartogarphy site.

Hi Kenny had a look at mine and think this is the same area but not exactly sure. This is mapsource 4.11 and european city navigator V5

ANSWER :-

Yes. There is an interchange at N51 24.307 E 8 05.127.

You are too far south.
It should be at N51 23.804 E8 05.705
Here is the spot as a waypoint.

The words :- hairs & splitting come to mind.

No worse than spokes and rust.
What use is a mapping system that can't map.
Anyway v5 shows the m/way joined up.
