I'm not sure but I suspect that if a local council publishs a map (even

It's a shame since they usually get the namings correct.

Sometimes on a narrow street T-
intersection, if the car was on the left hand side of the road, close
to the sign, you can just make out the letters.
In Tathra I missed mapping one street (probably called Esther Street). The
GSV actually is readable for this street but I won't name any street

The GSV of Rogerson lane shows it looking relatively new, can't see any

They must have been practicing for mapping the runway at Gibraltar - at

The latest Sensis mapping has that error but the latest Navteq ones don't -
Strange.

Thanks Liz - it's now fixed.
I'm interested to see where that No left turn in Binalong is. After some

rarely read the street names on them. Sometimes on a narrow street T-

Google Maps has finally caught up to OSM in the Canberra suburbs of Dunlop
