[Talk-lt] Hello

[Georgiana-Bianca Hămbășan]

Hi Nerijus,

Thank you for your interest. Indeed, for now our focus is on improving the
road network for vehicles by updating the road configuration, adding
missing roads, oneways, turn restrictions or other features that might
impact the car navigation. There are some plans on also improving the
foothpats but we didn’t start anything on this side yet. When it happens,
we will announce it here.

If there are any other questions that I might be able to help you with,
please let me know.

Have a great day!
