    Type Alias Avoidable

    Avoidable: typeof avoidableTypes[number]

    Route features that the routing engine will attempt to avoid when calculating routes.

    • tollRoads: Avoids roads requiring toll payments
    • motorways: Avoids high-speed limited-access highways (useful for scenic routes or vehicle restrictions)
    • ferries: Avoids water crossings requiring ferry transport
    • unpavedRoads: Avoids unpaved/dirt roads (recommended for standard vehicles)
    • carpools: Avoids carpool/HOV (High Occupancy Vehicle) lanes
    • alreadyUsedRoads: Prevents using the same road segment multiple times (useful for delivery routes)
    • borderCrossings: Avoids crossing international borders (useful for customs/visa considerations)
    • tunnels: Avoids underground tunnels (useful for vehicles carrying hazardous materials)
    • carTrains: Avoids car train transport segments
    • lowEmissionZones: Avoids zones with vehicle emission restrictions
