/places/whatever is going to be there because of the default routes above: ie map.connect ':controller/:action/:id You probably don't want to mess with that setting either. If you really want to use /places/<action> for something else, then you'd need to put a new rule in above the default rules to override them; something like: map.connect 'places/:action/:id' , :controller => 'some_other_controller' Seems unlikely you'd want to do that. So, I think living with the two routes isn't a problem. If you really wanted to shut it off, I guess you could have 'some_other_controller' send back an http status of 500 or something. map.connect 'places' , :controller => 'some_other_controller' , :action => 'warn' I defer to a routing expert though.
