A method is disclosed for providing information using a navigation apparatus to guide a user in a vehicle along a determined route to a destination through a road network. The method comprises generating data indicative of a navigation map for display on a display device of a navigation apparatus showing the roads in a portion of the road network. The method further comprises generating data indicative of a first route line for display on the navigation map showing the one or more roads to be taken from a current position of the navigation apparatus to follow the determined route through the road network, and then providing the data indicative of the navigation map and the first route line to the display device for display thereon. The method further comprises generating, upon determining, while the vehicle is traveling along the determined route, that the current position of the navigation apparatus on a multi-lane roadway is approaching an associated road junction, data indicative of a lane guidance panel based on a position of the road junction in the navigation map that, when displayed on the display device, covers a portion of the navigation map. The method further comprises generating data indicative of a second route line for display at least on the lane guidance panel indicating one or more lanes in which the user should be travelling so as to follow the determined route, and then providing the data indicative of the lane guidance panel and the second route line to the display device for display thereon.
