If it's an open Piazza map the ways approaching the area & make sure 
they're attached to the edge of that area. The number of ways across the 
area are almost infinite (you can wander where ever you like).

Routing software can (or at least should) find ways out by processing 
the boundary looking for attached ways. Unfortunately I've had 
conversions with routing programmers who seems extremely reluctant to do 
that. However that's their problem - please don't map to suit their 
laziness.
