Re: Tread Changes Exisiting Routes - Shaping Point Issues

It's true that the roads are closed.
But neither the XT2 nor my Tyre Planning Tool nor BaseCamp have a problem with this.
This should not be a problem either, and if I want to be asked whether these should be bypassed. As I've written before, I have reasons for wanting to ride there and I don't want Garmin to tell me whether it makes sense or not.
Then both XT2 and the Tread app developers should know that you might want to plan for the future and allow temporary route closures.
Then to the other problems.
A turn at a cross roads was not a cross roads - it was one road passing over another.
I can't find that. But if that's the case, then it should be included in the calculation and a suitable curve should be found.
A turn onto a main road was not available. A turn off the main road was available, but not onto it, I can't find that either, but here, too, a suitable alternative route should be found.
Due to road works I should not be able to plan? Tread app, is your developer serious?
Attached are pictures that show that planning is not the problem.
I can also recalculate over all with other route algorithms without any problems.
Ergo, the route is not the problem,
If the Tread app is causing problems.
One more thing about the accuracy of the points.
As we already know, BC is no longer officially XT2 compatible.
But no matter, you have different map sources, that is the general standard. Because of different maps, the points are sometimes shifted by a few meters and that has to work.
I have now also driven through all the points again with Streetview, and I don't see the problems as serious as you have discovered.
I could live quite well with an alternative calculation of poorly placed points
