To help keep track of progress on various WME overhaul projects in Maryland. Use the Maryland Assignments google sheet to volunteer and track your progress.

The purpose of this sheet is to volunteer/assign portions of the state's road network, and counties for improvement.

Editors may "sign-up" for a job by writing their username in the cell associated with a County or Federal/State Hwy.

If an editor chooses to work on a highway route, it should be completed as an individual project, and completed in a as few sessions as possible, to protect routing functions.

Once a 'job' is complete, the cell should be colored green to indicate completion.

Add Speed Limits

Add speed limits reported from the app, or from viewing street view imagery in the WME. Additionally, you can view SHA's data on Speed Limits.

Once you've completed adding speed limits in an area, mark it on this google map, by coloring the area green:

Speed Limit Scripts

These scripts may help facilitate the adding of speed limits. Use as directed, report any error only to the script thread, not in the WME thread. Most scripts require Tampermonkey.

WME Color Highlights (WMECH)
WMECH now includes a "No Speed Limit" filter. You can also choose to highlight streets as well as highways.

Street Vector Layer
Replaces standard "Roads" layer with a customizable layer. One of the customizations colors the road "shoulders" with speed limit colors.
