For example, one cannot use traffic designations to direct a dwarf to confine his digging to a specific area.

Additionally, traffic designations cannot be used to restrict where a dwarf will stand when building/digging. In other words, traffic designations will not prevent a dwarf from placing himself on the outside of the fort when the last tile of a moat or wall is completed. One workaround is to build a statue on a tile you don't want your dwarves to stand on. | Additionally, traffic designations cannot be used to restrict where a dwarf will stand when building/digging.
