Unpaved road not recognized in Windows Route Planner
-
Hi everyone,
I had planned an itinerary with the filter of avoiding unpaved roads, however during navigation I had reached the turning point for a detour but the MRA app warned me that the indicated road was unpaved.
Why did the Windows route planner grant me that route while the MRA app denied it to me?Thanks a lot

@Corrado-Miniati-0, If you place a waypoint ON an unpaved road, the avoidance of an unpaved road is of course not possible.

Hi Con and thanks for the feedback, but so the route planner doesn't prevent you from placing a way point or via point on an unpaved road if the option is enabled to avoid them?
If so then should I check all streets with StreetView?
Impossible to do on a practical level.... -

Impossible to do on a practical level....@Corrado-Miniati-0 I agree. The app will, provide a warning if you turn onto a dirt road because a waypoint had been placed there. It makes sense that the planner web site should provide a warning if you place a waypoint on a dirt road or highway or toll road if you have set the option to avoid those roads.
Would be a nice enhancement for the web planner.

Apparantly not. But I too would appreciate being able to identify (avoid) dirt roads, on rhe map.
