Node removal needed in Wauwatosa, WI

:link: My profile link :

Hi, in Wauwatosa, WI and I am looking for help removing 2 streets please:

  1. West Connell Court that connects to N 94th street (upside down “L” street) no longer exists and that entire hospital complex is under construction. Can the nodes on West Connell Court and North 94th in the hospital complex be removed please.

  2. West Walnut Street from the intersection of 113rd Street to the train tracks is gated off and private (it is part of the town dump).

Can the nodes on both of these streets please be removed? Thank you very much!

If you get into this silly site enough, it’s helpful to get used to making your own edits. It’s pretty easy. Here’s the GIS site that is the basis for CityStrides:

OpenStreetMap

I’m always hesitant to edit things I can’t confirm with my own two peepers, but you should give it a go if there is something clearly incorrect. A quick peruse of google earth and it looks like at least a portion of Connell Ave is being maintained and probably will be extended to some extent by the new development. I’d probably just hold off editing anything until construction is a little farther along. Unsatisfying to be sure, but it probably will lead to a more accurate map.

Your other location, just go in and change that segment of street to “private”. It usually takes a bit for this site to update - could be weeks, but it’ll be an easy change.

Good luck!

Definitely good to learn how to do it yourself, take a look at this About OpenStreetMap
