Rest Area closures
As of this righting 02/2016 there are currently no guidelines in the wiki stating how to close a ramp. This was brought to the attention of our RC, discussion ensued and a final conclusion has been made. Listed below are the following state guidelines for Montana only and should not be considered accurate for any other state outside of Montana. |
The choice to implement a RTC (Real time closure) was based on multiple parts. First we want to Update the rest area. Secondly turns: TBTR (time based turn restriction) Waze will still route to the rest area, RTC merely suggests a suggestion/penalty.There's no other way to get there, so it will route that way. A closure will make the segments invisible to the routing server and therefore will never direct the driver onto the ramp.
