Default Traffic Controll

Hi
I am trying to simulate the traffic in a logistic center. Transporters have to bring supply from a source to several other destinations (Queues). The goal of the Simulation is to see where the bottlenecks on the road infrastructure are. I made a small presentation model to see the capabilities with network nodes.
There are sections where the Transporters cannot cross (between NN16 and NN 15). But it is possible to have more transporters on the section if they drive in the same direction. I tried to control the section with a traffic control. But I couldn’t tell achieve the behavior that only a crossing is not allowed. Is there a method how to control this behavior?
I added the demo model so you can see what I want to do.
Thanks in advanced

Uri

Instead of 'mutual exclusion' try the un-timed option and add a second mode going in the other direction. Change the number of travellers for both modes (Max_Nr in the table) to the number you will allow in the same direction.
