Having had another play, I see that the Pyrender map hasn't got the
crossings at Dartford / Thurrock; the M25 just stops at J31! This is
where it becomes the A282 to go over/under the river.

The only error I can see is that someone has set maxspeed=50mph - not in
map features but, I think, moderately accepted though I won't use it.

Similarly, the A13 doesn't come up around this same junction. My route
through London actually takes the A1306 (old A13) instead! I'm not sure
at present why - I'm going to delete my cache & try it again while I'm
out now...
