Just received my TT 700 about 2 hours ago.

My road is showing up as being unnamed. Is there a way to add a name or correct this.

I have lived here nearly 9 years,so it should be on a map?

It's not possible to add the road name yourself. As to whether a 9yr old road should be labelled then Yes, is it a private road, unadopted or something similar?

You can send map errors to Tele Atlas........... it's probably worth sending them the road name through.

Thanks both.

The road a live on,is part of an estate which still being built on,perhaps,as you say,the council have not adopted them yet?

I shall give Tele Atlas a go.

My road is really old - it's been here over a hundred years. Although it's out in the country it's the main one through the village and has about fifty houses stretcehed along it over a mile and it shows as an UNNAMED ROAD.

The best thing you can do is report it as a map error

Where's the best place to send map errors too? I looked on the TeleAtlas website and there is a place under "Support" but the TomTom isn't listed as a product... I have a few to report!

You have to select Great Britain as the Country, not UK, and then there is an entry for TomTom GO.

If you type in IP313AA in Find Menu, of Browse Map, you get Major Lane and there is a large part of North Suffolk all using the same road name.

Probably to stop any invaders knowing where they are! Laughing
