Sorry...try it now. You can't edit turn restrictions unless all segments attached to the junction are unlocked. Be sure to check that next time and include all the locked segments in your permalink.

Also, the proper way to Allow All Turns is to click on the junction and then type QW. This manually restricts all turns and then allows them all. If you don't do it this way, you can leave soft-restrictions, which are set by people driving through the intersection, and aren't 100% reliable.

Any time you edit a junction do the QW trick and then manually restrict any disallowed turns by changing the arrows.

Correct. Q disallows and W allows. You don't want to ever hit W without hitting Q first. Once you get used to that, you can ignore the "Allow All Connects", etc. in the upper left hand corner.

Alan, as I said in an earlier post, you have to manually set any restricted turns after QWing the junction. You still should QW, even before setting a restriction to be sure to kill any soft restrictions.

I need to setup the allowed turns for this tiny segment, but some of the other roads are locked by a level 4 editor :(

Can you help me?
You need to post that permalink to the Unlock Requests thread and make sure to follow the instructions in the stickies and someone with the appropriate permissions will take care of that for you.

It has only certain turns allowed. It doesn't let me edit it.
You don't have sufficient permissions to edit that junction.

I see there's a center divider there, so I restricted all the necessary turns.

DAMNIT. It's because one of the connecting roads was edited by a level 4 editor.
