repass

Move past twice

To repass is to pass again—to go back over the same ground or through the same place: The train repassed the station where we had boarded that morning.

The word is formal and uncommon, appearing mostly in legal or literary contexts.

It can also mean to pass something again in a legislative sense: The bill was amended and repassed by the Senate.
