Only one route redirects to a trailing slash

So I have a route:

Route::get('dashboard', 'Dashboard\DashboardController@index');

And when I try to open this route a trailing slash is added and I am being redirected to a 404 error. this: /dashboard becomes this /dashboard/

And the strangest thing is that is happening with ONLY the dashboard route, All other routes are working just fine.

Route::get('dashboard/users', 'Dashboard\UsersController@index');
Route::get('dashboard/users/create', 'Dashboard\UsersController@create');
Route::post('dashboard/users/create', 'Dashboard\UsersController@store');
Route::get('dashboard/users/edit/{id}', 'Dashboard\UsersController@edit');
Route::post('dashboard/users/edit/{id}', 'Dashboard\UsersController@update');
Route::get('dashboard/users/delete/{id}', 'Dashboard\UsersController@destroy');

all these and all other routes work fine

any suggestion is welcome

The solution was obvious. I just missed it.

I had a folder under the public folder with the same name as my route and the .htaccess clearly states:

# Redirect Trailing Slashes If Not A Folder...

So if anyone else comes across this issue just check that you dont have a folder under the public that has the same name as a route.

It is intentional.

In their .htaccess file, you can read the following snippet:

# Redirect Trailing Slashes If Not A Folder...
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)/$ /$1 [L,R=301]

Wich does the redirection (Line 8 in the current version).

If you dont want it to redirect, just comment those lines.
