What is it?
A map can show places and possible routes.
Why would I need this?
Checking the route in advance can reduce last-minute confusion.
Show me.
- Confirm the destination address with the place you are visiting.
- Choose walking, transit, or driving as appropriate.
- Look at the travel time, transfers, and arrival point.
- Check the route again before leaving and leave room for delays.
Try it.
Using a map you trust, look up a public library rather than your home address.
Watch out for this.
A suggested route is not a guarantee of access, service, or safe conditions. Do not follow a phone while driving.
Explain this another way
A route is a set of directions between two places.
