Attribute
RTT Route Intended Use
Definition
A route within defined limits that has been surveyed for clearance of sea bottom and submerged obstacles as indicated on a chart.
Description
It is primarily intended for use by ships which, because of their draught in relation to the available depth of water in the area concerned, require the use of such a route. Through traffic to which the draught consideration does not apply should, as far as practicable, avoid using deep-water routes.
