Hello,

Can you configure a favourite route, i.e. my journey to work. This is because TTM5 calculates my journey to be 1min quicker, but 10 miles longer than the route I usually take. Thanks.

Welcome to the forums.

I trust you do know the way to work and do not need a navigation system for that. Navigation programs are there to help you in unfamiliar terrain, and favorite routes are not really relevant in that context.

Laughing I do sometimes wish I couldn't remember, but as my journey takes me via some of the UK's traffic nightmares I use the traffic info function to avoid the congestion. So perhaps this could be included in future releases. Thanks.

In which case use the 'Alternative Route' function to exclude the roads you don't use. This normally allows you to refine the route sufficiently to match the one you take. You can't 'save' this information though but it will result in traffic info relevant to your journey?

Use the itinery function to define your route the way you like it.
