A new bypass has been completed around Reims in France. It's been planned for 5 years at least and has been under construction for well over 1 year.
Does anyone have any experience of time lines for 'significant' road constructions?
It's not on the map update I just downloaded for my 920.
Does this appear on any current models?
Thanks | Well, the Reims bypass has appeared in the latest TT summer map update. ![Smile](modules/Forums/images/smiles/icon_smile.gif) _________________ Fraserp

The Hindhead Tunnel on the A3 is on the latest map, but doesn't open until July. Do they get credit for being ahead of the curve? |

Absolutely not. They have a huge backlog of demerits - e.g. London congestion zone four months after it changed, M4 Junction 11 still not sorted - make up your own list and it'll perhaps be as long as the Hindhead Tunnel! ![Rolling Eyes](modules/Forums/images/smiles/icon_rolleyes.gif) _________________ Dennis
