Title: Beaverhouse parking lot
Post by BillConner on Jan 22^nd, 2016 at 1:55pm

So I was messing around on Google maps with travel times and such and somehow I became aware any usercould contribute. There is now a "Beaverhouse Lake parking lot" in their data base.

I don't understand what this means.

It simply means that if you use Google maps and you want directions to enter at Beaverhouse, Google maps will find it by name.

I use Google maps a lot and I'm provided three main options.

11h 47 min
11h 12 min
10 h 40 min

What is surprising is
Continue onto International Bridge
Toll road
0.2 mi

Turn right onto Church St
0.3 mi

Turn left onto Victoria Ave
394 ft

Turn right onto Trans-Canada Hwy/ON-11 E
66.8 mi

Turn right onto Flanders Rd
10.1 mi

Turn left onto Beaverhouse Rd
3.6 mi

That last part seems longer than that!
