:There is a major toll gate not too far from Montcada. Its quite possible a driver left these guys off there as it has plenty of traffic going North. I've used it going both directions with no problem in broad daylight and in the middle of the night. Maybe these guys were attracting too much attention, or were acting unsafe. Usually the Autopista staff and policia are no problem, at worst stop and tell you to stand well in. [[User:haggismn|haggismn]] 02:03, 9 October 2011 (BST)

<blockquote>
Under: "Option 1: Montcada"
 
I will write my suggestion in this order:
- The original text
- Reason for changing text and how I would make clearer is
 
So...
- The original text text I am referring to is:
"Exit the train station to the left, through the second exit in the direction
of the train. Walk under the railways and pass through the station building."
 
- Reason for changing text and how I would make clearer is:
You don't actually do what you write so I think definitely change. You wrote
"Exit the train station to the left, through the second exit in the direction
of the train. Walk under the railways and pass through the station
building").
It wasn't clear when I was walking what you meant by second exit etc. I think
you meant second exit of train but it wasn't clear and after exiting the
train it's the only exit so people will definitely find it (unless they walk
on the track!)
 
More accurately I think write "Exit the train and walk towards the front of
the train where you will find some steps that go under ground and this will
help you exit the station." This seems more logic or clearer at the point in
time you are writing for.
 
So at this point for us it wasn't also clear (when walking down the stairs
after coming out of the train) which exit to take. It's a subway/tunnel under
the track and only choice is left or right to help exit the station so that
needs to be clear. Right is toward the station building so I would write >
"At the bottom of the steps you can only go left or right, go right and this
takes you under the train tracks to the other platform where there is the
station building."
From this point you can continue to write and link the rest of the well
written direction > "pass through the station building and exit the station
and you will find yourself at a small shopping district with a one way
street."
