Hi all,
Exciting news. The RMS has released details about the timing of the
alphanumeric rollout in NSW.
http://www.rta.nsw.gov.au/roadprojects/projects/alpha_numeric/documents/factsheets/implementation_factsheet.pdf
In summary:
1. May - July 2013: Routes where the number is changing (e.g. from route 18 to
B72)
2. August – November 2013: Motorways and the majority of A routes
3. Nov – Dec 2013/early 2014: All remaining A and B routes, and decommissioned
routes.
I summarised region-by-region which areas are in PHASE ONE between now and July
-

I think it would make sense if people can oversee specific regions.
I can keep maintaining my region.. (Newcastle / Central Coast) and I can help
out elsewhere too. As mentioned previously I've already created new route
relations mentioned in the "HUNTER & CENTRAL COAST" section - therefore
switching on the new Refs will be a simple case of selecting all members of the
relation and adding the ref tag -- and where relevant creating an old_ref - for
the legacy route number, but when we do this we should keep in mind there will
be cases where it's not just a simple old-for-new replacement (e.g. Central
Coast Hwy A49 / SR83).
I have also already created relations for M1 from Wahroonga to Beresfield, A1
from Beresfield to Byron Bay, ready for easy change of ref after August
according to the schedule. During this editing I noticed some sections of A1
had already been switched on by other mappers. Also the Kempsey Bypass had been
ref'd as M1 - but it's my understanding this will still be A1 so it's also in
the A1 relation for updating/correction after August.
