My 730 gets 95% through planning the route and then gives up with a 'no route found' message!
Can someone else try it please?
The place is...address-city centre- CORYTON (Stanford-Le-Hope)

My GO920 running map version 825 does allow me to plan a route to the centre of Coryton.

I can see that the GO920 believes that the centre of Coryton to be on a part of Manorway which is recorded as a private road, e.g. pedestrian only. That is probably why you cannot plan a route there. The application will not plan routes using private roads.

" No route found " on mine - GO 730T Sad

I do have another device though (TT) and that successfully calculated a route ending in Fleet Street with the junction of the A1014 (The Manorway).

Where's that ?? I live in SW Essex 36.2 miles from the destination.

The new 825 map gives a route, but it's rather circuitous!

My 815 does the same. That's the nearest it can get to what it thinks is the "City Centre".

May not have been in this case, but mapshare is wide open to malicious changes. Back end of last year, I couldn't navigate home. It turned out that the only 3 entrances into my village had all been marked one-way leading out. (only one of them is one-way out.) So once I get into the village, all was well, and it would navigate happily. Going out of the village equally fine, but no route found trying to get in. I changed it and shared the changes and now it's working again. But it seems a "good" way to stop rat-running past your house!!

I've now stopped using mapshare, apart from my own changes.
