Does anyone know how to avoid more than one part of a route without doing each bit seperately?

For example, I want to avoid the m25 when I go to Swansea but M25 is on the route list about 5 times. I have to select each one individually to exclude it and then wait for the route to be re-calculated.

Is there a quicker way?

No. That's how it is designed. If you don't like the M25 at all then you could create a permanent avoid in that area (or multiple along the route) But you cannot tell it not to use the M25 for the whole route while you are driving.

Thanks for the reply

Do you mean using the road block feature to Avoid an area?

On my friends PDA TomTom he can draw a box round an area and it is excluded from the route, TTGO doesn't appear to have this. It also doesn't appear to have the ability to be set the speeds for different types of roads... which could be a good way of getting the unit to avoid certain types of roads - i.e makes the speed very low so they are avoided!

How do you set up a permanent avoid? I have the TTGO and can't find this option! Embarassed

Not sure you can, think you have to do it each time?
