Direction

To get the required TTS for Ramps use ri, which stands for the Dutch richting.

Destinations

Mention as destinations after the ri in the first place the names that are shown in white on blue. Use a destination that is presented in black on white only in exceptional cases or if the sign only contains black on white destinations. Same applies to the brown touristic signs.

If along the highway directions are given for straight-on, the Junction Arrow voice prompt should be set to "Continue".

If straight ahead means entering a highway, a visual and audible warning should be added."

Roundabouts

Roundabouts have their own set of instructionsː For a standard roundabout (4 exits) the instruction is Turn left at the roundabout. For other roundabouts the instruction will be like Take the third exit at the roundabout.

Street names

Remark on street names see the Street and City names pages.
