Truck transit roads
Posted: Thu Oct 15, 2015 9:43 am
Helo everyone!
We face a really complicated problem this time that I’ll try to explain with all the small details.
We hope you could help us to solve that issue because we have found no real solution on the forums or descriptions:
We couldn’t managed to enable the national truck transit road handling rules in xRoute.
It is vital to handle the transit roads right in the routing because driving on a prohibited non-transit road leads to a huge fine for our customers.
In average there are only a few transit roads in a european country and if we plan between outside points through that country xRoute should use only the permitted transit roads.
There are also country local transit roads which are similar to the country based transit roads. But first we would like to clarify the usage of the country wide transit roads.
In the example we are planning between the following 2 points: 47.946111, 19.146665 – HU and 47.729792, 17.636301 – HU
With our current profile, setting and map data, xRoute calculates the following road:
The route is incorrect and violates the transit road rules! All of these roads are forbiden to use IN TRANSIT drive in Slovenia. That kind of limitation is the same in any other countries in europe.
The right sollution could be one of the following: We use roads only in Hungary because thats the destination/origin, or we could use Slovenian roads BUT ONLY the transit ones.
We can not limit the countries involved in planning to Hungary in our case, because the valid transit route in Slovenia might be better compared to the hungarian route.
Could you please help us how can we achieve that desired behaviour?

KZsolt
