<div dir="ltr">They seem to put in a lot of "future" things using tags that imply something is currently there. On top of that, they use the wrong tags (landuse=industrial instead of landuse=retail). They've also screwed up a bit of TX 71 and US 290, removing them from relations, in an erroneous attempt to make the road dual-carriageway.</div>

<div>Cam4rd98 seems to have at least tried to mark these as future facilities, by using the name tag with the word "futture", though landuse=construction would follow the wiki better.</div><div><br></div><div><br>
