Traffic layer on the map without buttons added

Open in CodeSandbox

You can add a map layer with traffic information. However, you don't have to put the "Traffic" control on the map. You just have to add the corresponding traffic data provider to the map. This example uses the "Current" traffic provider traffic.provider.Actual.
