🛑 Bypass

Watch how bypass routes divert around towns, cities, or major interchanges—designed to streamline traffic or reroute throughways.

 

The 🛑 Bypass tag applies to highway segments that intentionally route traffic around towns, city centers, or congested areas. These alignments are designed to streamline through-traffic, reduce urban congestion, and improve travel times—often resulting in newer, wider, and faster-moving roads located on the outskirts of developed areas.

While efficient, bypass routes may skip scenic or historic locations that were part of the original highway alignment. As a result, travelers looking for charm or cultural context might miss out unless they choose to explore the older path through town.
