How can i force a reload instead of a transition in Ember.Route

For example inside this function:

File: play_route.js

actions: {
    willTransition: function(transition, route) {
        transition.abort();
        transition.refresh();
        // maybe
        // window.location.href = route;
    }
}

How can i force a reload inside Ember.Controller

For example inside this function:

File: play_controller.js

actions: {
    reloadPage: function() {
        // reload baby
    }
}

This should do the trick:

window.location.reload(true);

So according to you guys I've solved my both problems as follows, acknowledge if this is the proper way to do this.

In controller i refresh the page:

window.location.reload(true);

In route i transition to specific route:

actions: {
    willTransition: function(transition, route) {
        transition.abort();

        window.location.href = '/' + transition.targetName;
    }
}
