Please note: Routes are set to give you driving directions by default. To switch to walking directions, click the Walking Direction button above "Where are you starting?"
Alternate Route Options
Depending on the route, we'll offer up to three alternate options to choose from. You can select from "Route #1," "Route #2," or "Route #3" (or click the #1, #2, or #3 bubbles in the map). Once you choose your route, click the “View Route Directions” button in the left-panel (or the highlighted route bubble on the map) to load your turn-by-turn directions.
*Route Options are only displayed for A-to-B routes and not routes with three or more stops*
