Split polygons with polyline sections

davidchamberlain2

Hi,

I have a polygon layer that I need to split at every start and end point of a polyline layer. So the polylines make up a layer identifying roads and they are split up into thousands of connecting line sections. The polygons are an extent layer for the same road network as the lines, so they do sit over each other. I want to split the polygon layer at every point where a polyline section starts/stops. So the output polygons will be sectioned up at the same points as the lines are. Does anyone have any ideas how I can do this?

 

Thanks

Thanks for the suggestions all. In the end I used the subdivide polygons tool to split the entire layer into equal blocks, this with a spatial join to the line layer achieves the same result as splitting the polygons as I wanted to do originally just in a different way.

Thanks
