 |  |  | Google Maps glitch in Ontario
< on 6/10/2009 4:04 AM >
|  | | | Has anyone noticed that certain major freeways/highways in Ontario are no longer labeled? Smaller streets are named but bigger highways are not.
For example:
http://maps.google...2608,0.703125&z=11
Hwy 402 is the big orange roadway.
Other provinces and states don't seem to have this issue. I've only noticed this since maybe a few weeks back.
Weird. In a map way.

| | | | I've been experiencing other glitches with both google maps and google earth. Maybe they're in the midst of making some changes?

Yeah I suppose. It's a little weird as it only seems to be affecting Ontario (I did a cursory check of other provinces and states). Hopefully they'll get it fixed soon...

| | | | The 401 is marked "McDonald-Cartier Fwy", the 427 is "King's Hwy 427 Expy" but the 403 is not marked at all.
However they are all marked correctly in the terrain maps.
Weird.

| | | | One I've found inconvenient is that there are two "Dundas and Bloor" intersections in Toronto, but only one will be mapped. There's no option that I could find to see the other one. Sometimes I get the one in Etobicoke, while other times I get the one closer to Roncesvalles.

| | | | It used to work for the longest time before... weird. Wonder why they'd update their maps to remove information.
