Finding alternative routes
Perhaps a route has been planned that you’re
not happy with? Perhaps you have been routed
via a busy junction? Perhaps you have spotted
roadworks up ahead?
Or perhaps you really wanted to go ‘via’ one
particular location? In each of these cases,
‘Find alternative...’
can help you. Again,
you’ll see it on the main menu, right next to
‘Navigate to...’.
Which ‘Find alternative’ option you go for
depends on why you’re dissatisfied with the
first route.
Choose ‘Travel via...’
if you want to
make sure the planned route goes past one
particular location, perhaps to collect (or
drop off) a letter or person. If you spot signs
of trouble, choose ‘Avoid roadblock’
.
Or if you want to avoid a particular road
junction, perhaps because it’s a known traf-
fic black spot, choose ‘Avoid part of route’
. Finally, if you want an alternative route
because you simply don’t like the original,
choose ‘Calculate alternative’
.
Tip: If you want to include more than a single ‘via’ location
in your journey, use the comprehensive ‘Itinerary planning’
feature instead, described in the manual on CD.
