During the life span of a roadway, the routes may change as portions of the route are removed while others are added. Major changes, such as environmental concerns, age, erosion, or repair work, may require a portion of a route or the entire route to be retired for a specific period of time.
When you specify that a portion of a route should be retired, that portion is removed from the route in the LRS Network for the specified time frame. When a route is retired using the Retire Route tool, the route's To Date field in the LRS Network feature class is populated with the retirement date.
When portions of a route are retired, the centerline features are split to accommodate the precise location of the retire operation. Calibration points are also added to ensure that the remainder of the route continues to calibrate properly.
Route retirement scenarios
The following are examples of route retirement scenarios:
Retirement on a route without recalibration
Retirement is from the start of the route to the middle portion of the route.
From Route | RouteX |
---|---|
From Measure | 0 |
To Measure | 5 |
Recalibrate Downstream | No |
After retirement, the route is not recalibrated, leaving the downstream measures intact. The start measure of the remaining route is updated to the same value as the start measure of the route before its retirement.
Retirement on a route with downstream recalibration
Retirement is from the start of the route to the middle portion of the route. The route is recalibrated downstream and the downstream measures are updated.
From Route | RouteX |
---|---|
From Measure | 0 |
To Measure | 5 |
Recalibrate Downstream | No |
After retirement, the route is not recalibrated, leaving the downstream measures intact. The start measure of the remaining route is updated to the same value as the start measure of the route before its retirement.
Complex route retirement scenarios
The following are examples of route retirement scenarios on complex routes including loop, lollipop, branch, alpha, and infinity routes.
Retirement on a loop route
In the following example, a route (RouteX) has a start measure of 0 and an end measure of 12. Retirement takes place from the middle to the end of a loop route.
From Route | Route X |
---|---|
From Measure | 9 |
To Measure | 12 |
Recalibrate Downstream | Yes |
After retirement, RouteX becomes a simple route.
Retirement on a loop route
In the following example, a route (RouteX) has a start measure of 0 and an end measure of 15. Retirement takes place in the middle of the lollipop route.
From Route | Route X |
---|---|
From Measure | 4 |
To Measure | 8 |
Recalibrate Downstream | Yes |
After retirement, RouteX becomes a branch route.
In the second example, retirement takes place from the middle to the end of the lollipop route.
From Route | Route X |
---|---|
From Measure | 12 |
To Measure | 15 |
Recalibrate Downstream | Yes |
After retirement, RouteX becomes a loop route.
Retirement on a branch route
In the following example, a route (RouteX) has a start measure of 0 and an end measure of 9. Retirement takes place from the beginning to the middle of the branch route.
From Route | Route X |
---|---|
From Measure | 0 |
To Measure | 3 |
Recalibrate Downstream | Yes |
After retirement, RouteX becomes a simple route.
In the second example, retirement takes place from the middle to the end of the branch route.
From Route | Route X |
---|---|
From Measure | 6 |
To Measure | 9 |
Recalibrate Downstream | Yes |
After retirement, RouteX becomes a simple route.
Retirement on an alpha route
In the following example, a route (RouteX) has a start measure of 0 and an end measure of 18. Retirement takes place from the start to the middle portion of the alpha route.
From Route | Route X |
---|---|
From Measure | 0 |
To Measure | 6 |
Recalibrate Downstream | Yes |
After retirement, RouteX becomes a simple route.
Retirement on an infinity route
In the following example, a route (RouteX) has a start measure of 0 and an end measure of 24. Retirement takes place from the middle to the end of the infinity route.
From Route | Route X |
---|---|
From Measure | 18 |
To Measure | 24 |
Recalibrate Downstream | Yes |
After retirement, RouteX becomes an alpha route.
Retire route parameters
The following table lists the parameters used in the Retire Route tool:
Parameter | Description |
---|---|
Network | The network in which the routes exist. |
Retire Date | The date when the retirement takes place. |
Route ID | The route on which the retirement takes place. |
From Measure | The measure on the route where the retirement starts. This is displayed as a green dot. |
Use route start measure | The starting measure of the route. |
To Measure | The measure on the target route where the retirement ends. This is displayed as a red dot. |
Use route end measure | The ending measure of the target route. |
Recalibrate route downstream | Choose this option to remove the length of the retired route from your overall set of measures. |
Complete these steps to retire a route:
Nota:
Gap calibration rules are followed when editing routes.
- Add the
centerline and network feature class to a map.
You can also open a map in which the centerline and network feature class is already present.
Nota:
The information model expects only one centerline at any given location. Ensure that the centerlines you're using for your edit do not overlap other centerlines in your LRS.
Nota:
Traditionally versioned networks must be edited through a direct connection to the geodatabase. Branch versioned networks, including any network configured with a user-generated route ID, must be edited through a feature service.
- Zoom in to the location where you want to retire the route.
- Click the Retire button on the Location Referencing tab.
The Retire Route pane appears.
- Choose the Network in which the retirement will take place.
Nota:
To edit using feature services, the LRS Network must be published with the linear referencing and version management capabilities.
- Click the Calendar button next to the Retire Date text box and choose a retirement date.
Sugerencia:
You can also double-click the Retire Date text box to automatically populate it with today's date or type a date in the Retire Date text box.
- Click the Choose route from map button next to the Route ID parameter and select a route to retire on the map.
- Provide the start measure value in the From Measure text box or click the Choose measure from map button to select the start measure on the map.
A green dot appears at the location of the start measure on the route.
Sugerencia:
You can also check the Use route start measure check box to choose the start measure of the route.
- Provide the end measure value in the To Measure text box or click the Choose measure from map button to select the end measure on the map.
A red dot appears at the location of the end measure on the route.
Sugerencia:
You can also check the Use route end measure check box to choose the end measure of the route.
Nota:
Check the Recalibrate route downstream check box if you want to remove the length of the retired route from your overall set of measures.
If the Recalibrate route downstream check box is not checked, the modified route gets its start measure from the end measure of the retired portion, and the end measure of the modified route remains unchanged.
You can't retire the route if the From Measure and To Measure values for the route are the same.
- Click Run.
The selected portion of the route is retired.
Nota:
As a result of the retire route activity, only routes or portions of a route are retired; centerlines are not retired.
Nota:
If a message about acquiring locks or reconciling appears, conflict prevention is enabled.
Retire routes in a line network with multifield route ID
Routes in a line network with multifield route ID can be retired as shown below. Line orders will be updated if needed.
The first example shows the before and after retirement at the beginning.
Example 1 input
Route ID | Line Order |
---|---|
RouteX | 100 |
RouteA | 200 |
RouteY | 300 |
The first part of RouteX at the beginning will be retired.
After retirement of the first part of RouteX, line order is updated. RouteA now has line order 100, while RouteX is now 200.
Example 1 output
Route ID | Line Order |
---|---|
RouteA | 100 |
RouteX | 200 |
RouteY | 300 |
The second example shows before and after retirement at the end.
Example 2 input
Route ID | Line Order |
---|---|
Route X | 100 |
Route Y | 200 |
The second part of RouteY will be retired.
Example 2 output
Route ID | Line Order |
---|---|
Route X | 100 |
Route Y | 200 |
Line order is unaffected when retiring a route or part of a route at the end.
