Is there a way to change the road color in a map created with Google My Maps? I want to make a screenshot of my map, but the color of all roads should be black.

I tried to change the CSS via browser plugin Custom Style Script for Firefox without success.

I found also https://mapstyle.withgoogle.com, but I think it doesn't help.

There is a work around to do this

  1. create your route with all the points
  2. export your map as KMZ
  3. create a new map
  4. import this KMZ file in a new layer
  5. Select "individual styles"

Now you suddenly can choose for the the option "individual styles" Click this option Then click the the name of your route and you can change the colors of the route

(In de picture I made a part of my route black)
