Development updates

The site lives at roadworks.bailiwick.gg and is called Roadworks. The old roadworks.gg address still works. Questions and corrections go to hello@bailiwick.gg. Live bus positions from bustimes.org can be switched on in the map tools.

Parishes are ranked by the share of their own road network under closure, with each parish's network measured from OpenStreetMap (456 km of drivable public road island wide), so a small parish is no longer flattened by its size. The heat map expands to fill the window and carries a panel listing the weighting, filters, counts, lengths, days and the heaviest notices it was drawn from.

The map now says how many miles of road are closed in the range shown. Stats gains the road closed in the period, the typical and longest closure, the busiest day, a chart of notices active through the period, road closed by promoter, the longest closures, the longest running works, notices by type and by parish. The heat map can weigh each notice by its duration, its length of road or both, and can be narrowed to one promoter or to closures only. Lengths are the extents of the notices added together, so a road under two notices counts twice.

The Night console theme: a navigation rail on the left, the map filling the screen with the date range floating over it, and a panel on the right for the road search, the traffic info filters and route planning. Tapping a notice opens its details in that panel instead of a popup. Quick ranges for today, seven days and thirty days. On a phone the panel becomes a bottom sheet and the rail a tab bar. Last updated time sits bottom left of the map; the map credits moved to the About page.

A refresh now compares the feed's record only with the row that holds its key. It used to match any row with the same content, revive a stale copy and skip the real one, which then served old dates.

The States feed reassigns its row ids whenever the layer is republished, and rows were stored under those ids, so each refresh overwrote rows with their neighbours' records and left orphans. On 06/10/2026 about half the rows drawn for the day were stale or belonged to another record. Rows are now keyed on the job number, which never changes, rows the feed drops are withdrawn rather than left serving, and the filter that should have excluded No TM records compared the wrong column and matched nothing.

Notices are de-duplicated on the whole notice (reference, project, type, location and both dates), not the reference alone. One reference covers many separate notices in the feed, so they were being folded together and the notice count, the closure count and both rankings were too low. Stepping by school term now lands on the right term on a term's last day. A failed load says it failed instead of showing zero. Fetches past the feed's 2000 record cap are split by date until nothing is missed.

Dates read DD/MM/YYYY everywhere with a date field that ignores the browser's locale.

Facebook share currently posts the full site instead of the selected road.

Tap to add drops focus to map popups instead of placing a pin.

Side panel marks a road as closed when the path runs adjacent to the closure.

Phone taps must be pixel perfect before the popup responds.

Buttons shift on smaller screens creating a misaligned toolbar.

Needs deep checking that the data is being imported correctly.

Polishing contrast on side panels and refining map accent colours.

Provide a quick export of visible closures for operational teams.

Increase the update frequency for third party integrations.
