You are right. It is a map error. You can navigate all the way to the end of the A30
Zoom in on lands end and you will see that the small un-named roads are shown as one way in a direction AWAY from Lands End so therefore the software will not navigate you as it will not send you the wrong way down a one way street!! |

I knew it was a map error with the one way thingy, but it seems it's confined to Navman. I reported it to them earlier in the week. _________________ Tim |

I have a simpler routing funny:
--------------B-----
..\....|
...\...|A
....\..|
.....\.|
.......|
traveling up road A, expecting to turn right onto B, TT2 did it fine, TT3 sends me via the road to the left, intended to offload left turning traffic!! |

Think i have found route of my prob on A69...........
A69 dual carriage runs east west and intersected by B6309 which runs north/south.
Think there is a gap in road network where B6309 hits A69.
TTN3 will not route you past this junction but immediately will pick up
A69 road network once you have past junction.
TTN2 was Ok
Any care to check my findings?

Yes, the B6309 takes a dog-leg direction when it hits the A69. My guess is that back in the mists of time this was a straight road which simply crossed the A69 but at some point in history the last 70 metres on the south side of the A69 has been re-routed about 20 degrees to the west. So I think it's the B6309 which has a bit missing rather than the A69. Have a look at http://www.streetmap.co.uk/newmap.srf?x=405360&y=564960&z=1&sv=405360,564960&st=4&ar=Y&mapp=newmap.srf&searchp=newsearch.srf&dn=767 to see what I mean.
But as you say, this worked in TTN2 - I know I've used it often enough on the A69.
