+1 to that. Looking at the eastern side imagery again, I'd make a
general comment that will help elsewhere: There really should be a node
about where the pedestrian crossing is and pushing the road slightly
north. This would bring it closer the traffic engineer's intention,
which is that the Liverpool Road meets the Burwood Road at right angles.
And in this case, lessen the angle with with the western extension.
Digressing but when playing around with routing software, I noticed that
a lot of us map in slight oblique side roads and tracks meeting the main
road at the same angle, whereas if we look closely the actual junction
is actually at or a closer to a right angle. This has quite an impact
for the routing algo to work out what instruction to give.

I agree there should be a better way, but I would solve this problem
by bring the road split to the east of the the intersection in this
case. The road divides on the eastern side of the intersection
anyway.
Then there will be no option but to continue straight.

G'day all!
In the intersection of Liverpool road and Burwood road in Burwood, Sydney (see
attached), if I am travelling in the direction shown by the red arrow, then my
GPS device should tell me to continue and drive straight at the intersection.
However, because at that junction, the map splits up Liverpool Road into two
roads, OSMAnd tells me to turn left there, which is quite confusing.
What is the appropriate way to fix this mapping? Or is it a problem with OSMAnd?
