Decided to head up there today and decided to head out on Oakwood. What surprised me was how I ended up on a completely new alignment that took me over to Dix and Mellon and that the Oakwood alignment I was familiar with now named "Old Oakwood". Is this new?
I have already updated OSM to reflect this. https://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=1...8832/-83.15377
Fascinating. I can find nothing on the interweb about this.
Oakwood is being changed because of the Marathon expansion.
Very interesting! Last time I tried to have a street eliminated from the road network my request was declined. Maybe Marathon said "please"?Quote:

Wesley, do keep up!
