Changeset - #123254900
Activities:
1. Focused on improving junction and road definition at Bethel Road & Pickforde Dr.
2. Split Bethel Road and Pickforde Dr. by adding nodes.
3. Added lane information for Bethel Road and Pickforde Dr. going into and out of intersection.
4. Reviewed turn assignments at junction. They look okay.
Notes:
It was difficult to understand the correct approach to mapping a junction. The OSM Wiki documentation can benefit from additional examples and best practices.

Neat, I happened to edit the Northwest Columbus marker recently. It’s a big further north, but I’m planning to work on the zoo as well.
Intersections can be complicated, I also don’t have a great grasp of them, but I haven’t done a lot of editing with them.

Hi @Eiim. Nice! I am looking forward to seeing your updates on the Zoo! I was doing a bit of reading around the intersections and nothing seems to come up. I think my strategy is to now hope that someone has mapped a couple of intersections “correctly” in NYC and follow some of their practices! Good to meet you virtually!

This was a good start, but this area needed a lot of cleanup. (See changeset 123322598)
