GOOGLE ROLLS OUT TRAFFIC ALERTS IN NIGERIA, KENYA AND SOUTH AFRICA
Google is updating Google Maps with new traffic alerts in Nigeria, Kenya and South Africa. Google hopes that this new feature will help avoid traffic jams.
This is the way it works.
- When you input your destination on your Google Maps, you’ll get a spoken alert for upcoming traffic conditions that helps you identify the quickest route.
- While you’re on the road, Google Maps will give you a heads up if congestion lies ahead, and how long you’ll be stuck in a jam.
You’ll also get the option to take alternate routes, including explanations for why one is recommended—whether it’s the fastest or just avoids traffic.
