The VRP solver has been designed for a more spread out use case so for helping this problem solve better the recommendation is to consolidate the orders on a street edge to a single order to help spread out the problem. The curb approach and global u-turn policy can then be used to have the routes travel that whole edge without turning around. You can find more information on this&nbsp;<A href="https://www.arcgis.com/home/item.html?id=e10699cdffb64eb69490aeb2912f75ad">here</A>&nbsp;from the material on a high density routing presentation. Of note is this is presented on 10.7.1 where several improvements have been made to the solver to help with the solution and more are planned for coming releases. The concepts should help with 10.4.1, still.</P></BODY></HTML> Tue, 30 Jul 2019 17:59:14 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-network-analyst-questions/vrp-returns-to-the-same-road/m-p/395847#M3770 HeatherMoe 2019-07-30T17:59:14Z
