Steve,

Recognizing the OSM/Google Maps thing, the map I sent you showed the MDDOT 
route overlaid on a Google satellite view.  Can you not use the DOT's overlay 
information showing which roads are used in the NB and SB routes?

And yes I was guessing (poorly it turns out) the distances.

Subject: Re: [Talk-us] Is USBR 11 in Maryland complete/correct in OSM?

Hi USBR (11, in this case) data folks:

Kerry, as a reminder, OSM is unable to use data derived from Google Maps, so I 
had to again follow text-based directions to complete the following.  By way of 
eliminating my earlier FIXME tags, Elliott’s newer tags of 
“cycleway:right=shoulder” are quite helpful and truly do disambiguate how one 
might ride through here (even as OCM does not explicitly render these, as OSM 
is primarily about correct tagging, not necessarily any particular rendering).

• I added some “forward” role tags to elements in the USBR 11 relation which 
clarify that the southbound-only portion of the route follow the cloverleaf 
(between SR 67 and US 340) and onto Keep Tryst Road.

• Kerry’s assertion that the southbound route takes the right hand ramp from 
the southern end of SR 67 onto US 340 for about 500 feet is a little short:  my 
JOSM session reports that segment (after the 270-degree “cloverleaf” and up to 
the right turn onto Keep Tryst Road) is about 1682 feet.

• I slightly modified the final approach on Keep Tryst Road so that instead of 
its final right turn “hook” instead it cuts through the parking lot, skirting 
parked cars on the service road (unsigned_ref=180A) to pick up the Appalachian 
Trail.  This is where the forward role tags end for the southbound-only 
segment, as N-only and S-only split/join here.

• The northbound-only segment now includes Keep Tryst Road west of the parking 
lot and about a half-mile (2533 feet) on US 340 back to the “trumpet curve” 
(exit from US 340) and onto MD 67 starting with the bridge over US 340, again 
with “forward” role tags as appropriate.

The relation as just entered can be viewed directly with:
http://www.osm.org/relation/4095725#map=16/39.3284/-77.6924&layers=C
where the orange superimposed line shows the new edits/corrections.  However, 
the usual caveat that this will take a few days (weeks for low zooms) in 
OpenCycleMap do apply.  In the meantime, the orange line (newly corrected 
relation) can be compared to the older red USBR route line until the 
re-rendering is complete, when these will match each other.

If I/we STILL don’t have this right, I sure would like to hear about it!  
Thanks to everybody for the joint effort at getting this corrected.
