Traffic Conditions for New Zealand on Google Maps
Tuesday, March 20, 2012
Kiwi automobile commuters, we want to reduce your time stuck in traffic. Today we have expanded our live traffic coverage in
Google Maps
to cities in New Zealand.
To look at the current traffic conditions for an area, simply go to
maps.google.co.nz
and click on the traffic layer located in the widget on the upper right hand side of the screen. The desktop maps are great for scanning the roads before you get in the car. But if you want to check out the latest road info on the go, the traffic layer is also available on your mobile device through
Google Maps for Mobile
and
Google Maps Navigation
.
Also note that if the roads you are travelling on do not yet show traffic information, don’t despair. Y
ou can help your fellow drivers and improve traffic data by
using Google Maps Navigation or Google Maps for Mobile while traveling
.
