angular - Angular2 How to navigate to certain section of the page identified with an id attribute

Question

How to navigate to certain section of the page identified with an id attribute?

Example:

I need to navigate to "structure" paragraph on my page

<div id="info">
  <h3>Info</h3>
  <p>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit.</p>
</div>    
<div id="structure">
  <h3>Structure</h3>
  <p>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit.</p>
</div>

And I have a following navigation structure:

<li>
  <ul materialize="collapsible" class="collapsible" data-collapsible="accordion">
    <li><a routerLink="policies" class="collapsible-header">Policies</a>
      <div class="collapsible-body">
         <ul>
           <li><a >Info</a></li>
           <li><a >Structure</a></li>
           <li><a >Something Else</a></li>
         </ul>
      </div>
    </li>
   </ul>
 </li>

It is my understanding that in Angular1.0 I simply could've navigate to the page section using something like: ui-sref="policies({'#':'structure'})" or href="#structure" or ui-sref="policies" href="#structure"...

How can I do it in Angular2? I looked at the Fragment example in the docs: Query Parameters and Fragments section and I am finding they example to be very confusing and a bit overkill for such a potentially simple task

Angular 2: I would prefer to go with scrollIntoView() method scrollIntoView. It would provide smooth scrolling transition effect in the browser.

HTML Code

    <div #info id="info">
        <h3>Info</h3>
        <p>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit.</p>
    </div>
    <div #structure  id="structure">
        <h3>Structure</h3>
        <p>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit.</p>
    </div>

  <li>
    <ul materialize="collapsible" class="collapsible" data-collapsible="accordion">
      <li><a routerLink="policies" class="collapsible-header">Policies</a>
        <div class="collapsible-body">
           <ul>
             <li (click)="infoStruc()"><a >Info</a></li>
             <li (click)="moveToStructure()"><a  >Structure</a></li>
             <li><a >Something Else</a></li>
         </ul>
       </div>
     </li>
   </ul>
 </li>

and in the Component.

  @Component({
    selector: 'my-app',
    template: `template.html        `
  })
  export class AppComponent {
    @ViewChild('structure') public structure : ElementRef;

    @ViewChild('info') public info : ElementRef;

    public moveToStructure():void {
            this.structure.nativeElement.scrollIntoView({ behavior: 'smooth', block: 'end', inline: 'start' });
    }

    public infoStruc():void {
        setImmediate(() => {
            this.info.nativeElement.scrollIntoView({ behavior: 'smooth', block: 'end', inline: 'start' });
        });
    }
}
