+## Disable default route creation for public subnets
+
+Disabling the creation of the default can be used if you want have a default pointing to other gateways than the internet gateway(IGW)
+
+This is useful if you ex. would want to route all traffic through a AWS Network Firewall, but can also be useful for other purposes
+
+You disable the creation by setting the var.public_enable_default_route variable ex.
+
+```hcl
+  public_disable_default_route = false  # <= By default it is true to maintain existing behavior
+```
+
 ## Examples
 
 - [Complete VPC](https://github.com/terraform-aws-modules/terraform-aws-vpc/tree/master/examples/complete) with VPC Endpoints.
