Afvejet

Afvejet is a Danish term that translates to "diverted" or "rerouted" in English. It most commonly refers to the redirection of traffic, either by road or by public transport. This can occur for a variety of reasons, such as road construction, accidents, special events, or planned maintenance. When a route is afvejet, signs are typically placed to guide vehicles or passengers onto an alternative path.

In the context of public transportation, afvejet can apply to bus routes or train lines. A bus might be afvejet due to a closed street, requiring it to follow a modified itinerary for a period. Similarly, a train might be diverted onto a different track or a different line altogether if its usual route is impassable or unavailable. Passengers are usually informed of these diversions through announcements, digital displays, or updated schedules. The term emphasizes the temporary nature of the change, implying that the original route will eventually be reinstated.
