Accessing the Route Events Geoprocessing wizard

Note:

This wizard is only available in ArcMap.

All functionality available in the Route Events Geoprocessing wizard is available in four geoprocessing tools located in the Linear Referencing toolbox. It is recommended that you use the geoprocessing tools instead of the Route Events Geoprocessing wizard to perform these operations.
