Streets in Town of Platteville

Cedar Ln and Sunrise Ln are inaccurate. Cedar Ln has a gate about 100m down the street (where I stopped) and the rest of the road is private.
Sunrise Ln has the turn out of the Town of Platteville in the wrong spot. When running today, I followed the road exactly and on the map it shows me going off the road (I believe google maps shows sunrise accurately).
Thanks!

Could you post the link to the city please?

Sounds like a simple enough edit for OSM, and I’m sure someone will do it for you.

Or you could delve into the world of Open Street Map (OSM), and do the edit yourself.

All the info you need is in the wiki: OSM Basics

Edit: One other thing. I forgot to look if this info is there, but as a Garmin user I can upload the activity to OSM as a “trace.” This makes edits quite a bit easier, as if you run the road, you can use the uploaded trace to add the road to OSM. Or to know where gates are, which requires the road to “split”, at the gate, in OSM, and mark the part behind the gate as “private.” All this is in the wiki. I think. :wink:

Awesome! Careful though, OSM is addictive.
