Check a road using Google Maps street view.

[Alun Piggott]

When I am planning a new route, sometimes I want to check the road 'condition' using Google street view which I do separately using Google maps for example; so would it be possible to have an option added to the waypoints which would allow you to do a quick street view check of the location please?

@Alun-Piggott If you have a Gold subscription, access to Google Street View is direct in the route planner. Click the Street View icon and then click on the road close to the waypoint.

@Alun-Piggott as @nick-carthew suggests this option already exists in MRA if you have access to a Gold subscription
first click the google street view icon ( the stick figure man ) to show all the road available with a streetview image
then click the highlighted blue road you want to inspect & voila you get the streetview image

Thanks Brian and Nick this is definitely one of MRA's best features which is very useful when planning a new route using unfamiliar roads and locations.
