[QUOTE="pretzel_man, post: 887181, member: 927"] I've reloopled many centers. Some more successfully than others. If two centers combine (especially if they already were in the same building), driver routes and dispatch are not necessarily affected. Why would baselines and loop boundaries need to change? Even if zip code boundaries changed.... Zip code boundaries are considered "artificial" boundaries. Usually in place because of knowledge units. A highway, river, lake, etc. are considered "natural" boundaries will usually divide loops. If two centers combine, why would the baseline need to change? Those "baseline" roads exist whether or not the two centers are in existence. I've done this enough to know that the cause for your trace problems (and I do believe they exist) are not due to the centers combining. Maybe the layout was poor before. Maybe they are not dispatching via loop principles. Maybe the densities have changed. Its not likely due to the consolidation.... With all due respect to you.... Whenever I reloop, I get extensive input from drivers. They will tell me if its workable or not. I've done this a lot, (more than you), and my instinct is that the problem exists, but is in a different place than you think. Yes, the problem does exist. [/QUOTE]
