If you are planning your summer trip, you know very well how useful the Google Maps service can be. New, equally interesting features will be added in the coming weeks to the existing traffic congestion and traffic speed display functions.

One of them is the appearance of the prices that you will be asked to pay at the tolls of your route, but also the appearance of alternative routes to avoid them as much as possible. Starting this month, the operation will be tested in the US, India, Indonesia and Japan, but will soon be extended to other countries.

Also, for the routes in the city, the traffic lights and the STOP signs will appear on the map, but also enhanced information about the most important place names in some cities, along with information about the width of the roads, the passages and the islets. We will see this feature in Google Maps in the coming weeks.

A new home screen widget will be added specifically for Apple device users, giving you instant access to the paths you entered on the Go tab, while Apple Watch owners will have instant access to shortcuts for the Home, Work paths or anything else they have set as default.
