(At the largest scales, the line symbols representing the streets and roads are automatically hidden and only the labels showing the names of streets and roads are shown). <strong>Imagery With Labels</strong> basemap in the basemap dropdown in the ArcGIS web and mobile clients does <strong>not</strong>&nbsp;include this World Transportation map. If you use the Imagery With Labels basemap in your map and you want to have road and street names, simply add this World Transportation layer into your map. It is designed to be drawn underneath the labels in the Imagery With Labels basemap, and that is how it will be drawn if you manually add it into your web map.&nbsp;</span></p>
