myRutgers UXP (new beta) – Maps | How to use the top nav bar (web and mobile)

The Maps page allows you to view Rutgers campuses and the bus routes that are available. There are 3 key areas to Maps: the top nav bar, the map actionable icons, and the map. This part will cover the top nav bar.

Here you can see what stops are on the route as well as when the next bus is arriving at that stop. If there are multiple buses, multiple next arrival times will display as shown here. You can click on a stop to select that stop and view more information. You can also click on the play button in the gray circle to select a bus.
