Getting Directions

You can plot a route based on two addresses as well as define a buffer along a route that will return all the projects contained within the buffer. Driving directions to the locations within the buffer can also be provided.

To Get Directions:

1. Click the Map link. The Search page will display.
2. Click Add Filter. Add a filter to display projects.
3. Click Get Directions. The window is re-directed to the mapping page and the Get Directions widget is displayed.
4. In the Get Directions widget, leave the buffer distance and unit default as is. Enter a starting address as Location 1.
5. Enter an ending address as Location 2.
6. Click Get Route.
7. In the Results pane, click the X next to all Lat/Long values if they exist to remove them from the list. Once all the Lat/Long values are removed, the Get Directions widget will "work" by showing a rotating circle icon. The widget will then display turn by turn directions.
8. Click Print to print the directions.

To add another destination:

1. Click the widget menu to return to the Location input.
2. Click Add Location.
3. Enter a new location and click Get Route.
