Avoiding And Favoring Roads - ALK CoPilot Live User Manual

Avoiding and Favoring Roads

CoPilot gives you the ability to avoid or favor specific road segments. This Planning Mode
feature is handy when you want your route to avoid a traffic jam or road construction, and
can also be used to guide a trip along a route you know you want to take.
To avoid or favor a road, first click either the Avoid or Favor button on the tool bar, then
click on a road segment on the map. Zoom your map view in as far as you need to in
order to pick the right segment. You can pick one or several segments on th same road.
Red cross-hatching indicates an avoided road segment, green cross-hatching indicates the
segment is favored. The example below shows an avoided portion of Route 27 outside of
Kingston, New Jersey.
Route 27 Will Be Avoided
No Avoid/Favor Modifications
Avoid and favor preferences can be edited in the Custom Roads Manager. Select Manage
Custom Roads from the Tools menu. Avoid/favor preferences you set in Planning Mode
will be active in Guidance Mode.
