Swedish term or phrase: omledning
Hello

The context is easy to give. if there are roadworks, the traffic has to be diverted.

But where i come unstuck is that I have the term "Överledning" which is an "overpass diversion" (me thinks), but i have to contrast this with "omledning" so I need a word/phrase emphazising traffic is diverted "AROUND".

Coming up in the text, I can see two more type of "half-diversions" , Förbifart and Förbiledning but I'll cross those bridges [sic] when I come to them


Any ideas please for "OMledning"

thanks

This is apparently what they use in the UK... can testify to it being used in the US -- seen it with my own eyes, but look it up!!

Search "temporary diversion" + "road construction" + "UK" (UK to avoid all the hits from India, Singapore, etc.) or "US"

Omledning, rerouting. Maybe “detour” is also usable here, but for me rerouting is done by somebody else for the traffic, which is right on the spot, while a detour is made by a road user for any reason.

Asker: Hello Andreas. Unfortunately, I also have "dirigering" (routing) and "leda om trafiken" (redirect traffic) in this text so it doesn't work for me. Any other ideas welcome.
