    Hi,,

    How should we code a road that is blocked on one side for all motorised traffic but is free for bycicles and pedestrians ?
    (or is there is a webpage with this kind of information, ?)

    See example below.
    From the far side, a car can drive in, but (in this case) needs to reverse out

    Thanks
    Best Regards

    Just wondering …..
    Is this the right place to ask these kind of questions ??
    Shoud I have started a discussion in Map Creator instead ??
    Will a HERE professional respond to Map Creator discussions, or is that only between us volonteers ?

    Thanks

    Hi R.Borrey,
    To update this information, you need to go to road attributes of this road. Under “vehicular access” you can change that access is not allowed for vehicular access (please see the image attached). However, please make sure you choose correct road type. Maybe in your case it’s for example a pedestrian road.
    In order to read more about it, I would suggest you to read through our help pages. Here you can find all information on how to code a road and it’s attributes: https://mapcreator.here.com/mapcreator/help/roads-and-road-structure/road-attributes/

    the part that is NOT accessible to vehicles should be edited as a TRAIL, and the part that can allow vehicles edited as RESIDENTIAL but tick only motorcycles, car, taxi and emergency vehicles only. and also tick LOCAL VEHICULAR TRAFFIC ONLY

    Well, I set the parameters for that road section according to the suggestions above, sadly, it was decided by HERE not to accept my changes, leaving that road section as it was in the HERE database (freely accessible for all traffic)

    Now I changed the entire road section to trail. Hopefully that will get accepted …

    Thank you R.Borrey!
    If it gets rejected, please let me know, so I’ll escalate it.

    Well Alicja, the good news is, it got accepted. (see left side of image below), but the bad news is that my change (to trail) was removed from the map (see right side of image). So I think nothing has changed in the HERE database.
    You may remember I reported this sort of situation before, where the status of my feed was changed to accepted, but the change in the map was revoked. Only then it was in combination with somebody else also changing something on that same road section. Which in this case did not happen.
    Thanks

    I see that since my post last evening GORDON changed it back to trail.

    As a strange result my feed seems to have received the status ‘under review’ again. even though I did not change anything .
    Is it possible that the statusses we see in Map Creator, are not the statusses of our own feeds but the statusses of road segments changes – no matter who made them ??
