Yes, as part of the "Avoid toll roads" feature. _________________ Tim |

Does it work though, and does it re-route you so you avoid entering the London CC zone? |

Does it work? "Almost" is the best answer I can give you, at least on the PPC version. There is one 'hole' which, if you plug it with an "Avoid" area makes the zone work properly. I think the road in question is called Gordon Street but if you turn "Avoid toll roads" on and then route from outside the zone to inside, SmartST will find this one way in. Plug it and you will have working CC Zone avoidance.
This said, there are a couple of other errors whereby the software thinks the zone is greater than it actually is. One such instance is Park Crescent, which the software thinks is in the zone but in fact isn't. _________________ Tim |
