Might be easy but, how do you get the classic running v5 to avoid a particular road?

I seem only to be able to get it to plan the route and seem to have no control over it.

I am going to Canterbury this weekend and it is routing me down the M11 then onto the M25.

I want to avoid the M25 as it is a carpark!

Thnx

2 options (I live about 2 miles from M25):

when you get across the river, tell it to recalculate, using no motorways.

or

go a different way, allowing it to recalculate.

You've got to get across the river, so I'd suggest coming through the Blackwall straght down the M25, once you get into east London, it'll recalculate to take you down the A2 instead.

I know that's not really what you asked, but it will do the trick!

Allow it to calculate the way it wants to take you then on the recalculate route screen there is an otion to avoid part of the route.

This may work although it may try totakeyou back on to M25 further down.

M11 not M25. Perhaps I shouldn't offer directions Rolling Eyes

Or use a "via" point somewhere on the route you know you vaguely want to go....
