A street that had a temp closure for roadworks for like a month near where I live took about 3 weeks to finally get marked as closed, and now half a year later is still marked as closed, google maps is a joke, too bad that maps is the only thing decently integrating with my HUD in android automotive, otherwise I'd have swapped to waze already (also owned by google btw, so insanity that they're not sharing road data)

They are not stop signs, but no entry signs. Or in the US they call this a stop sign?
