Google Maps Adds Live Traffic Updates for Delhi's Barapullah Phase-3 Amid Ongoing Congestion
Nearly four weeks after the opening of Barapullah Phase-3 elevated corridor in Delhi, Google Maps has started showing live traffic updates following requests from Delhi Traffic Police. This addition helps motorists assess congestion and consider alternative routes like DND, NH-24, or Vikas Marg. Despite this, traffic jams persist, mainly due to design issues such as lane mismatches and problematic merging points. Authorities continue to investigate these structural concerns, as bottlenecks remain during peak hours on the corridor and adjoining roads.
