    I would just do the switch statment and not the switch and the if statment. The redirects in the if statments should not be https://https. The problem with the switch statment is you are doing a string tolower but then are matching on a string with Caps. It would also be good in troubleshooting to add a log statement showing what you are matching. 

    when HTTP_REQUEST {
set RequestedPath [string tolower [HTTP::path]]
log local0. "RequestedPath = $Requestedpath" 

switch $RequestedPath
{


  "/gowest"
  {
     HTTP::redirect "https://www.y.com/GoWest"
  }
  "/gosouth"
  {
     HTTP::redirect "https://www.y.com/GoSouth"
  }

}
