Kalamazoo construction projects- Thank You!

Post by falco_sparverius
Work/Life has kept me away from editing, but I still think of you guys often.

Kalamazoo county has historically been behind on construction closures - but not this year! All major projects I anticipated having to fill in last-minute were already made.

Thank you Waze Map Editing community for all your hard work!

Last year, yes. Not this time, though!
I'm sure I'll encounter a few smaller ones to report ;)

Likewise, trukkurt. I hope all is well with you.

I happened to hop onto the editor today, and noticed that the US 131 and Staduim Drive work is missing from the map...

I've got a couple of segments that need closure in the Kalamazoo area:

Update: The SPUI at 131 and Stadium is complete and open today (Sept. 3rd, 2015).

Unfortunately, tile updates have been behind this week.

The closure function is very helpful in the editor. It would be great if a warning could be set, "road Closed", "Construction" or "Accident" to other roads that pass through the area. For example, "Construction Ahead" while driving down I-94 and approaching an overpass construction project that is closed via the editor.

MichiganRoadRunner might be following the closures, not sure. He drives for NASCAR so I'm not sure if he is in the area right now. Then of course Miked_64, Capt_Kegs and GadgetMTS come to mind.

Thanks to both of you for your work on the map.

Falco, I closed both until 7/31/15. Do you know what the end date is?

And I thought YOU were instrumental in the closures I saw in my Waze app when I drove Stadium Dr across US-131 Friday night! :)

Looks like that slack is getting picked up!

Good to hear from you, Falco!
