Why Won't MRA Follow the Beartooth Highway

[Sam Kramer]

I can't figure out why MRA is not allowing me to make a direct route entirely along the Beartooth Highway from Red Lodge, MT, to Cooke City, MT, and including the portion in Wyoming. I can only guess that MRA knows there is a road closure which doesn't allow the direct path. I created this route about two months ago, and back then, MRA did follow the Beartooth Highway, but today it does not.

I can not find any road closure information on the MT or WY DOT websites.

Any ideas?

@Sam-Kramer In the overlay maps select the traffic overlay and zoom into the area of road that the map will not route on. If there is a red/white line this indicates a road closure. You could try turning on the Disable seasonal closure tool in the toolkit if you are using the planning map from HERE.

I just tried the suggestions. There are no road closures indicated. Neither the Montana (https://www.511mt.net/#zoom=7.550255906688425&lon=-109.13842246235015&lat=45.015493985482095&events&road-cond&rwis) or Wyoming (https://map.wyoroad.info/511-map/) departments of transport report closures on Beartooth Pass (US Highway 212). Turning on Disable seasonal closures does allow routing along the Beartooth Pass which is confusing because the road is usually open from the end of May to some time in October. I assume that this is a HERE maps issue.
