Enter Blocked Junctions

Overview

By default, vehicles are not allowed to enter a blocked junction. This ensures that oncoming traffic can flow freely.

However, if you have two or more junctions that are close together, such as connecting roads on a small roundabout, or a street with lots of side roads, forcing vehicles to wait for their target lane to become free can result in traffic jams.

There's not much space between each of those junctions, so vehicles will have to keep stopping and starting while they wait for the next bit of the road to clear.

To get round this problem, you can allow vehicles to enter blocked junctions.
