As another Dutch guy I do not agree with you. My personal experience is that Google Maps has always been the fastest to update their map.

- lucb1e 10y agoWell I know instances of both, but a recent example was the opening of the A2 tunnel in Maastricht. I think Google got it by now, but OSM had it overnight (like 9am when it opened 8pm the previous evening). I myself thought of it Saturday morning after it opened on Thursday evening, but the mapping job was already done. Plus, OSM can contain roads currently under construction, so it's a simple matter of removing the construction tag, removing the old roads and connecting the new one(s). Or if you are a user and not a mapper, you can still see where the road will be.
