Hi Alan,
First off, superb work on mkgmap and routing - my Vista HCx regularly gets new maps as new features are added! Thanks very much.
Cheers!
At http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/relation/79516, there is an offset crossroads where it is acceptable to approach Boroughgate from Beech Hill, but not from Manor Square. (On a "normal" crossroads, it would be acceptable to go straight on to Boroughgate, but not to turn left or right into it). The crossroad is sufficiently offset that the centre point has been added as a way rather than a node. The via part of the turn restriction is on a way, rather than a node.
Either this is a reasonable example of having a way as the via part, or there is a better way for me to have added the turn restriction. Does anyone have any alternative suggestions?
I have looked at that junction - interesting. The problem I have at the moment is understanding how to convert a 'via' way into a turn restriction (or, perhaps, restrictions) as understood by the gps. I shall think about this and maybe others will be able to help. It's early days for this capability. Cheers, Mark
