There are a number of road closures and changes in London which are not reflected in the TomTom maps, even if most have been in place for more than a month.
How can we have the TomTom maps updated? Waze is up to date but TomTom isn't. I know there is a tool for officials to report these road closures, but is there anything we can do? I had a look at map share but I didn't find a way to report a road closure.
1) Road closures in Wandsworth: https://www.wandsworth.gov.uk/news/august-2020/three-new-low-traffic-neighbourhood-pilot-schemes-for-tooting/
2) Road closures in Hammersmith & Fulham: https://www.lbhf.gov.uk/transport-and-roads/sw6-traffic-reduction-scheme
1) are road closures for all - only bicycles can go through
2) are closures for non-residents: you can pass by only if you are a resident or a tradesman doing a job there, but you cannot pass through to go elsewhere. Not sure how this would even be reported in the TomTom software?

1) How do I report a road closure? I could find how to report no left turn, no right turn, but not a road closure
2) How do you report a road which is open to residents only, but not to people passing through to go elsewhere? Do you know how TomTom displays it?
Thanks!

I would click on the road concerned then Select "Other" then "Select a Type" then scroll to the bottom and select "Other" and input a description.
