Google Maps Edit Pending - Lane Name Changes Not Applying

Hi everyone,
I’ve been trying to edit lane names in Google Maps (adding, removing, or changing them to be correct), and while I’ve submitted the edits, they’ve been stuck in “pending” status for a few days.
I’m wondering if anyone else has experienced this issue with lane name edits not being approved or taking an unusually long time to process?
I’ve followed the standard editing procedures on my desktop browser, but the changes remain pending.
Has anyone found a way to expedite this process or understand why these edits might be taking so long? Any insights or advice would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!

Sometimes it take time , however of it doesn’t working try again. Once same happen to me I tried again and again final outcome was good.

Even up to 90 days and then it will be automatically rejected, because of timeout.
Many local guides are experiencing this and it seems most of road edits are rejected at first. There are some guesses, what might help, but there is no a real “recipe” besides keeping the edit as simple as possible (e.g. don’t change the name and the form at once) and trying again and again.
@ErmesT I am sure, you can tell as a bit more …?

Those edits may resolve to “accepted” or “not accepted” quickly or it might take up to 90 days. Unfortunately, there is nothing you can do, besides keeping each edit as simple as possible, but that doesn’t always help neither :pensive_face:
The first edit in your list says “Pending (3)”. When you expand it, you can see it is more than action to perform, for example setting/changing the name and changing the form of the road as part of that edit.
