Problem with NRA? (pics included)

[tinpotray 0]

This city is on the edge of my region. I have about 300,000 sims in the region and the centre regions are all highly developed. I'm trying to do a "Small town" with this region.

I zoned some light residential zones (see below) but they immediately showed the 'No road access' icons, even tho, as you can see they are connected to roads correctly. (I used the 'ctrl' key the make the zones face the road)

I tried rezoning, it fixed the NRA problem, but nothing seems to be growing at all:

Is this a bug? Is there anyway for me to fix this?

Thank you in advance!

This usually happens to all players, it is a glitch of the game. Let the simulation run for one or two Sim years and the no road access zots should be gone and the construction should begin.

Yes, these zots usually mean that the first pass of the simulator has flagged the lots for construction but the time out for construction has not expired. With a big city, well developed, this becomes more common.

I thought this was going to be about the National Rifle Association.

Jasoncw: LOL. I was wondering the same thing.

Ditto. The right name is No Road Zots. The A is probably a typo.
