I have been stuck in this for a long time. How can I replace window.location.href = url to use Angular routing?

checkforStoredLocale() {
  if (this.storedlocale && this.storedlocale !== this.localeId) {
    this.consoleService.consoleMessage('redirecting');
    let port = this.location.port.length > 0 ? `:${this.location.port}` : '';
    let url = `${this.location.protocol}//${this.location.hostname}${port}${this.baseHref}${this.storedlocale}${this.location.pathname}`;
    this.consoleService.consoleMessage(url);
    // this.route.navigateByUrl(url);
    window.location.href = url;
  }
}
