Proposal: Scouting
Proposal enacted 9-2-1 - Note, that we’ve just lost the ‘Bad Neighbourhood’ subrule - Prince Anduril

Create a new dynastic rule, “Scouting”:
In order to help extend their business, at any time a Driver can Scout for new Routes. To do so, he spends the Scouting Cost of a Route in Cash (as defined in the rule defining that sort of Route), and adds that Route Inactive to the bottom of his list.
Replace all subrules of the rule “Routes” with the following list of subrules:
Downtown
A Downtown Route has a Scouting Cost of 2. When a driver drives a Downtown Route, that driver earns 1 Cash.
Suburban
A Suburban Route has a Scouting Cost of 6. When a driver drives a Suburban Route, that driver earns 2 Cash.
Airport
An Airport Route has a Scouting Cost of 10. When a driver drives an Airport Route, that driver earns 3 Cash.
Adding a basic mechanic to expand your set of available routes. (The cost of an Airport Route is deliberately slightly too high to manage with the starting routes, so Suburban Routes are needed to build up to it.) This lays the groundwork for us to add sorts of Routes that do things other than simply adding cash.
I liked the random mechanic of the earlier rule
