Service disruption prevention through chokepoint identification and monitoring is disclosed. The present disclosure seeks to prevent (or drastically reduce the probability) mass vehicle recovery events due to fragile portions of the map. Choke points are identified by iterating through the lane segments of a map and analyzing the effect of their removal on the service area. Once identified, tooling is used to actively monitor chokepoints using a hybrid polygon with high granularity. Down and upstream effects also can be determined. Based on the monitoring of lane segments and/or areas, location connectivity can be estimated and a map fragility calculated therefrom. If map fragility reaches a critical state, one or more areas can be cut off from the service area.
