All was working as desired -- mapping requests on phone sent haptic alerts to watch. I have confirmed there is no active route set on the phone, so need to figure out what is auto enabled and stop it.

Your help/expertise is welcomed.... Thanks!

This appears when you navigate with a third-party app. If you still see the navigation icon after you end your navigation, restart your watch.

Turn off your Apple Watch: Press and hold the side button until the sliders appear, tap the Power Button, then drag the Power Off slider to the right.

Turn on your Apple Watch: Hold down the side button until the Apple logo appears.

See if this works.
