Yes, it's definitely been razed. The big BP sign is still there, so
it's unclear whether they're just rebuilding it from below ground
level or what.
Ahh ok, I couldn't make out signs from NearMap, then again I wasn't
looking that much after seeing

To me it seems an important aspect of OSM that its routable maps work
well. I had been using my Garmin 76CSx with OSM maps to check this
functionality.
Because the screen is too small for thorough hands-free checking, I've
just bought a Garmin Nuvi 1350. I'm finding that using this to direct
The Ulysses bike club might be another interesting one to approach,

And this is because of the way the roundabout has been drawn. The first
exit (west on Ginninderra Drive) isn't being counted as an exit because
that exit point is also my entry point. In other words, it shows that
one need not actually enter the roundabout to take that first turn.
