WRAL has it on their traffic maps but that isn't very useful for plotting a route. I actually posted a question in the Google Maps group a while back about how often new roads are updated but got zero responses

yes- it's very aggravating, but not to the point where i need to write to my congressman

someone update this when it's fixed

add: i'm going to write to mapquest about it. maybe they've addressed the situation, but i don't feel like pouring over their broad FAQs

There are two exits on that extension.

Do you really really need a map for that?

Google doesnt directly control the street data, they get it from NAVTEQ and TeleAtlas

complaining to Google will not do you any good


*** You can request that NAVTEQ update their maps here

i'm like an old man and i like to know the quickest and most efficient route. sure, i could get out there with my tripometer and check things out, but i'd like to save the gas and paper charts.

You can download a current copy - or request that a paper copy be mailed to you, free of charge.

I requested one a while back, and it does have the extension to 264, but not the 55 side, yet.

It's no google, but it gets the job done.
