go around
Take another route
Go around covers circular or surrounding movement.
You can go around a lake (circumnavigate it) or go around an obstacle (avoid it by passing to one side).
If something goes around, it circulates: There's a rumor going around.
When there's enough to go around, there's enough for everyone.
To go around with someone is to spend time together.
In aviation, a go-around is an aborted landing followed by another approach.
