Example

import MapKit
import UIKit
import curvyRoute

class ViewController: UIViewController, MKMapViewDelegate {
    @IBOutlet weak var mapView: MKMapView!

    override func viewDidAppear(_: Bool) {
        mapView.delegate = self
        addOverlays()
    }

    func mapView(_: MKMapView, rendererFor overlay: MKOverlay) -> MKOverlayRenderer {
        if let lineOverlay = overlay as? LineOverlay {
            return MapLineOverlayRenderer(lineOverlay)
        }
        return MKOverlayRenderer(overlay: overlay)
    }

    private func addOverlays() {
		let pointA = CLLocationCoordinate2DMake(41.375024, 2.149118) // Plaça d'Espanya, Barcelona
		let pointB = CLLocationCoordinate2DMake(41.380994, 2.185771) // Plaça Pau Vila, 1, Barcelona
        mapView.addOverlay(LineOverlay(origin: pointA, destination: pointB))
        let arc = ArcOverlay(origin: pointA, destination: pointB,
                             style: LineOverlayStyle(strokeColor: .systemTeal, lineWidth: 4, alpha: 1))
        arc.radiusMultiplier = 0.5
        mapView.addOverlay(arc)
    }
