| If you look at your link then move left until you see chattenden and zoom in the new road can be clearly seen on the sat image but teleatlas told me they had no plans to change their data. |

Dont really follow you, the A228 is on the google map going past Chattenden all the way to Lower Stoke.
Are you refering to the dual carriageway section which seems to run along side it after Chattenden? |

Thats the one, its been open for about 7 years some parts have now been resurfaced owing to the container lorries going out to Thamesport. Also it was shown correctly on the last navteq map used by TT ver 675.1322, but apparently it cant be seen by teleatlas  |

| The old road is still called Ratcliffe Highway, the new section is called Peninsular Way. |

| But does the old road have an A-number? It would help when you report the error if you let them know the name of the new road and the name of the old road and what numbers they are. Presumably the road they are showing is not the A228 anymore. |

OSM shows the old raod as having no number here .
If only Tomtom would use the data available to them in OSM

I have reported it every map release since mapinsight started, last time this was the reply that I got-
Thank you for contacting Tele Atlas. We are unable to make the change you suggested.
So good luck |

I've also submitted that map correction to Teleatlas for you. |
Me too. |
Thanks to both.
Still no mapshare on the GO 1000, but hopefully more reports will get this noticed.
I have informed TeleAtlas years ago. and they said they are aware of it, but seem to do nothing about it on any of their maps. |
Some good news..I have just had this email from TeleAtlas.......
