Route Styling: Color, Width, and Opacity
As your map grows, styling becomes the difference between readable and messy.
Color: use meaning
- Blue: planned
- Green: completed
- Orange: alternatives
(Use any scheme you like, just keep it consistent.)
Width: show hierarchy
Use thicker lines for primary routes and thinner lines for variations.
Opacity: reduce clutter
Lower opacity for older or less important routes so the map stays readable.
