During our editing work on lanes in Detroit and Phoenix we found some interesting situations, usually on intersections with dual carriage way, where missing turn:lanes tagging can affect the lane connectivity.
So, in this situation: 42.329625, -83.16889
There is no turn:lane info on the middle way, so there will be no connectivity between Way 1 and Way 4 and also Way 3 and Way 2.
Our Map Analyst team mapped lane info based on Mapbox initiative, in brief we mapped only where the marking is present on the road. So, on middle way from picture above, we didn’t add turn:lanes, therefor will be no connectivity to left.
We thought about a solution to resolve this issue, and we think that best option is to add there turn:lanes:both_ways=left on middle way like this:
So, in future we will map this cases like this.
We'd love any input and advice from you guys. If you have any questions or comments, please let comment below.
