Ed, hi

Thanks. For info, Essex County Council have told me that they “...can confirm 
that the NAR3 is still being worked on and is planned to be open before the P&R 
is open”. As you are aware, the P&R service is due to start 13th April, a week 
on Monday.

Given the short time before it is opening, does anyone object that I have 
marked the road as a standard tertiary highway? I need it to be available for 
routing in our system, as the P&R bus does NOT go along Boxted Road, but 
equally I don’t want to inconvenience anyone else by having “wrong” data in OSM.

Regards,
Stuart

It isn’t open yet (at least when I last checked) – I’ve left the A12 where the 
park and ride is being built to the north of J28 and headed south to see if it 
was open. I’ve made a note where I amended the section to the south that was 
open (and still roadworks) when I last drove through:
http://www.openstreetmap.org/note/264728#map=15/51.9227/0.9052&layers=N

Still closed yesterday according to this story in our local paper
http://www.gazette-news.co.uk/news/12693243.Roadworks_trigger_Park_and_Ride_changes/
and a temporary route will be used until the over-running roadworks is 
completed.

I subscribe to the local paper as well as follow them and a number of their 
reporters on Twitter, so when it does open I’ll go up there and get a GPS trace 
as I did the day J28 first opened (although anyone else local is welcome to try 
and get there first…)

Subject: [Talk-GB] Any mappers in Colchester who can help map a road?

Hi,

Are there any mappers in Colchester who could survey the new Northern Approach 
Road phase 3 to the east and south of the old Severalls Hospital? The proposed 
alignment is shown on OSM, but Google has it differently at the western end, 
and also shows a set of roads south of Colchester Rugby Club (NW of Mill Road, 
opposite Brinkley Grove Road) that are not on OSM.

Essex County Council need me to route a bus along it, so a) I understand from 
them that it is open and no longer under construction and will annotate OSM 
accordingly, and b) I am going to go with the alignment shown for the time 
being as it seems to align to a route map that I have been sent.

But clearly surveyed data would be better if we can get it, please!

Regards,
Stuart
