Routing anomilies

Former Member over 12 years ago

Trying to do some routing in Arkansas, on two routes I get some strange results.
I’ve shortened it down to the problem areas.
I’m running BC 4.2.4 maps 2014.2 motorcycling profile.
Enter these coordinates and see if you notice anything interesting.
N35 51.080 W93 20.085
N35 53.293 W93 22.785

Here is the second anomaly different route.
N36 15.212 W92 44.937
N36 17.858 W92 47.044
Instead of routing on AR125 it routes CR 3024, no matter what I do I can’t get it to route on AR125 between these two points.

I’m using 4.2.4 with NA2012.1 and don’t see anything odd with your first set of points. I get a route that follows HWYs 16 and 21.

On my map, AR125 is an unpaved road. My Motorcycle Activity will route along AR125 if the Unpaved Roads avoidance is unchecked. With it checked, I got it to follow AR125 by using the insert tool to place a point ~ halfway on AR125 at coordinates N36 16.736 W92 44.862.

Yea I found the problem with AR125, has a small section showing unpaved.
On th first example on my system BC routes from 16 down 21 to a point at 21 and 9360 then back to 21 north.

My older map shows a triangle junction at 16/21 and has no problem following it. Most of the roads past that junction on my map aren't numbered, so I suspect this area was updated between my version and yours.

Best to report a map error. The other possibility is that your map installation was corrupted in some manner, but that requires someone else with your map version to check the route.
