(medium issue)

Users attempting to find a specific restriction struggled considerably. Even those familiar with a particular restriction had difficulties finding the restriction location on the map. Multiple participants tried using the route field to narrow the restriction results to one particular intersection. One user even went as far as entering directional information in the route field (005N @exit 72) to narrow results to just northbound height restrictions.

A new Geocode service would need to be created in order to make this feature possible. It appears that the Geocoder dijit can utilize more than one Geocode service, so both the default Esri one and a custom one could be used.
