Discovered a road closure while on your ride and need to adjust your route?
Here's how:
- Open the Ride Options (three bars in the bottom left) during navigation.
- Tap on "Bypass closure."
- Select the length of the closure (500m to 1km).
- calimoto will automatically reroute you to bypass the closed section.
Here's how to remove a closure:
- Reopen the Ride Options
- Tap on "Remove Closure."
- calimoto will guide you back to your original route.
➡️ These detours are not available online for technical reasons. They are temporary and not added to our map data, and are specific to your current ride. Only one closure can be active at a time. Be sure to deactivate a detour as soon as it’s no longer needed.
Important:
Adding a closure will permanently remove any Via Points from the affected section of your route.

The last two rides I have taken were interrupted by 2 Different Different Rd. closures. If I block them using this described method, does it remember at the next time I take a random route? It’s starting to cause me problems as the roadwork intensifies. I don’t believe that Google maps has this issue.
Hey @ Rick Hemmert - First of all, I’d like to apologise for the delayed response; We're finally catchip up on our backlog here in the Help Center and will be doing our best to answer promptly from now on!
Unfortunately, the blocking process you mentioned only applies to the current ride. It’s designed for those quick roadworks that aren't yet included in our maps. For longer closures that are not yet shown on our maps, we recommend adding them to OpenStreetMap, which is where we source our map data. Once these closures are updated in OSM, they will be included in our next map updates.
Thank you for your understanding, and we appreciate your patience as we work to improve our service!
