Yes that should be all thats needed.

I can apply that to trunk too.

Oh I meant internally, there is a class that keeps track of all the
roads for routing, separately from the lines that get drawn. So a road
is held within mkgmap in two places but only one is merged.

Roads at different levels are linked together via NET and well I'd
have to look at it again to be sure, but it feels like that would
cause a problem to me.

It would be nice to get routing working at r=23, it may not be that
broken, I remember seeing a few pieces of code that assume 24 it may
work if they were fixed.
