Remove barriers from Service Area Analysis Layer

Hi,

I think I might have an answer to this, but I'm hoping that it's not correct.

I'm using the Service Area network analysis tool in ArcGIS Pro. I have been experimenting with the effects of the different settings and option. I have tested adding in line barriers to the analysis, and now I would like to remove the line barriers and re-run the analysis without them. But I cannot for the life of me find a way to remove the barriers once I have added them? This seems like it should be simple, given how easy it is to add them. I have looked at a bunch of different documentation pages and they only seem to mention adding the barriers.

Please tell me that I don't have to make a new Service Area Analysis layer just to get a clean version without the barriers?

The barriers sublayers are just ordinary feature classes, so to get rid of barriers, you should just delete all the rows. You can select them all and delete them and then save edits, or you can use the Delete Features geoprocessing tool.
