[DUAROUTER](../DUAROUTER.md) and [JTRROUTER](../JTRROUTER.md)
used to generate random routes for a given road network with the option
**--random-per-second** {{DT_FLOAT}} (or **-R** {{DT_FLOAT}} for short). Due to a number of bugs in this feature and because
those routes are highly unrealistic, this behavior was replaced with a
python [random trip generation](../Tools/Trip.md#randomtripspy)
script which can also produce a route set employing the
[DUAROUTER](../DUAROUTER.md).
