Hey all
Having driven the road today from Dingley to Thompsons Road I can
confirm two things.
1) The freeway is particularly boring and unremarkable. Not worth the
trip unless it is actually the quickest route to take.
2) The signs all read Mornington Peninsula Freeway; both on the turns to
get onto the road and on the distance signs while driving on the road
itself.

It also has a _huge _median, so they are obviously expect to extend it
to three lanes at some point.

The Engage Victoria website is CC BY 4.0 (State of Victoria (Department

To ensure data in our database is sourced correctly, we need to collect
street naming from on-the-ground surveys, compatible imagery providers,
and any other compatible licence sources.

The existing southern end of this road which was known through
construction as 'Peninsula Link', and is mapped as such now, should
probably also be called 'Mornington Peninsula Freeway.'
See relation
https://www.openstreetmap.org/relation/12622680#map=12/-38.1791/145.1193
and ways within.
Here is a VicRoads doc referring to upgrades on the southern part, and
calling it Mornington Peninsula Freeway https://engage.vic.gov.au/mpfu
However roadsigns along the road seem to call it Peninsula Link still.
re the Mordialloc end - the project page is clear that _"The 9km long
Mordialloc Freeway connects the Mornington Peninsula Freeway in
Aspendale Gardens to the Dingley Bypass in Dingley Village..."_
https://roadprojects.vic.gov.au/projects/mordialloc-freeway
The press release for opening it calls it Mordialloc Freeway

Nice work from the community surveying and mapping so quickly since
early opening.
There's no KartaView imagery of the extension, and Mapillary isn't
loading for me right now, so it's hard to weigh-in as an armchair
mapper.
On sampling some of the ways (example
https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/913115111), both name=* and
official_name=* appear to be sourced correctly and follow the "map
what's on the ground" good practice.
My only suggestion would be alt_name=* being the same as
official_name=* is probably redundant.

Hello,
There has been a flurry of activity in South-East Melbourne surrounding
the opening of the brand new M11 extension. Unfortunately, it seems as
though sources vary on the name of this new section of road.
The construction has been heavily advertised and promoted as the
'Mordialloc Freeway'. That is the name of the road on Vicnames as well.
Every roadsign I've seen in the area though uses 'Mornington Peninsula
Freeway'. Wikipedia (currently) uses that name as well, but the editors
there seem unsure what to call it as well.
Thoughts?
