Streetmap Premium.  

I want to change the symbology from the default traffic, to

  • make the line thickness thinner and remove the casings from the symbols
  • Leverage the hierarchy to display highways thicker than minor roads
  • keep the traffic classification, but perhaps slightly change colours.

The symbology tab is disabled when this ND Layer is selected.

I cant spot any settings under the ND that might change this, nor a layer file in the GDB folder that it might be using. 

Can someone point me in the right direction

Hi Simon. Unfortunately, Pro doesn't yet have any way to change any sort of network dataset symbology.  It's something we're currently researching, though, so we're willing to hear your needs and ideas (and the same for anyone else reading this).

Thanks for confirming Melinda.  

Screenshot above is probably a good explanation of the the need.

The default symbology is too crowded at city scale levels.

I notice the World Traffic Service makes use of scale ranges, but similar symbology.

However, I actually want to see all the roads, and a 0.5pt line width would work fine in this area.  

Ideally, I would have the ability to override the symbology.  Sure there must be good reasons why I can't.

Bigger picture:

I want to have 2 side by side videos

  • one showing the impact of traffic throughout the rush hour

Getting to Sydney Airport by Car on a Wednesday morning - YouTube 

  • another one would be the same view, but just animating through the traffic layer, with my choice of symbology.

Happy holidays to yourself and the NA team!
