How to move map marker like moving car on road from source to destination - android-maps

Question

I want to move marker on Google map from source to destination like Uber or Ola and i am working on google map, I am new so Please help me how it is possible ...?
My code is :
public void onMapReady(GoogleMap googleMap) {
GoogleMap gMap = googleMap;
addMarks1(gMap);
if (ActivityCompat.checkSelfPermission(getActivity(), Manifest.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION) != PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED && ActivityCompat.checkSelfPermission(getActivity(), Manifest.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION) != PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
// TODO: Consider calling
// ActivityCompat#requestPermissions
// here to request the missing permissions, and then overriding
// public void onRequestPermissionsResult(int requestCode, String[] permissions,
// int[] grantResults)
// to handle the case where the user grants the permission. See the documentation
// for ActivityCompat#requestPermissions for more details.
return;
}
gMap.setMyLocationEnabled(true);
gMap.getUiSettings().setZoomControlsEnabled(true);
// Turns on 3D buildings
gMap.setBuildingsEnabled(true);
}

googleMap.clear();
// updateRouteOnMAp();

You will have to remove the marker from the map using googleMap.clear() and redraw it again in the new location.
