  7. Hover over the layers icon in the top right of the map. An expanded list will appear. Click on the desired base map:
    Roadmap - standard Google map

    Hybrid - satellite image & road names

    Satellite - satellite image

  10. The screen can be also made larger by clicking the ‘hide route planner tab’ icon .

  13. Select Print.

  14. The printed page will automatically be downloaded to your computer for printing.

    Do not refresh or navigate away from the blank loading page. The printing may take a few minutes to complete.

    The map routes are only correct at the time of printing, therefore they can not be relied upon as compliance with an applicable Notice.
