I asked to move these three spots to their correct position and they seem to have been removed altogether? I don’t understand what removal criteria they would meet.

This is the photo I had provided of the info signs. The only explanation I have is that they thought there wasn’t safe pedestrian access but they’re literally info signs meant to be read by pedestrians? Street view is probably confusing since it’s showing construction but this street is meant for pedestrians and bicycles only, vehicles are only allowed to pass if they have business at the weir. The gate to the left is quite obviously meant for humans, I don’t think a car could fit through there. And the general spot for the historical weir was removed? Really? The ENTIRE area doesn’t have safe pedestrian access? I genuinely don’t understand.

This is a screenshot from maps that shows cars aren’t allowed to pass (pillar to prevent them)

Could it perhaps be some sort of sync problem or delay, or has it been long enough that you can probably rule that out?

I’m not sure what sync problem would cause them to disappear from the map both online and in-game

Maybe they did register them being removed from their old location but not them appearing at their new locations.

Or Niantic just decided to remove them altogether. Those are probably the only two options.
