Hi

Need to plan a regular work journey and as its a peak time one,I am wanting to avoid M25.
Anyone know of an online route planner that allows you to avoid part of route ?

I have googled but can only find ones that avoid motorways totally

Thank you

    I suppose you could plan avoiding all motorways then add go via...the motorways you do use.
    The M25 is not so bad, remember sat navs can be set to give traffic alerts as well as the route required, mine gets used most weekdays for traffic conditions ahead, and well worth the money when saves you, there are are subscription free devices as well.

    Use the Michelin route planner and ask it to avoid motorways.

    Buy an atlas and plan the journey yourself. Most journeys are fairly self evident.
  • Trouble is most of the other routes are full of other people trying to avoid the M25 as well.
    Nothing to see here, move along.

    Thanks all

    I dont want to avoid all motorways thats the point it appears that there is not one that only avoids part of route.
    I was going to plan it from a map but thought that surely an online version would exist obviously not thanks anyway

    :rotfl:lol true but at least if you get caught short you can stop on an A road,or do a diversion.
    As a commuter who once spent 3.5 hours static on M25 busting for a wee ! I now have an irrational fear of being caught short :eek:

    If you said the route then perhaps someone could help you?
