## Data issues

Please see the [OS MasterMap Highways Network Known Data Issues page](/os-downloads/products/transport-network-portfolio/os-mastermap-highways-network-fundamentals/os-mastermap-highways-network-known-data-issues.md) for details of live and resolved data issues for the products.

## OS Open Roads lookup table

We aim to publish a refreshed OS Open Roads lookup table with OS MasterMap
 Highways Network – Roads and OS MasterMap Highways Network – RAMI orders twice a
 year in line with OS Open Roads publication (April and October). Due to unexpected
 delays, the refreshed lookup table was not published with the
 April 2026 OS MasterMap Highways Network publication as planned. A refreshed OS Open
 Roads lookup table will be published with the
 May 2026 OS MasterMap Highways Network.

## Next release

The next release of OS MasterMap Highways Network is scheduled for **June 2026**.
