car&bike Team | Jul 3, 2019Google Maps Adds Mumbai Floods Feature To Alert Waterlogged Roads & Road ClosuresAn annual event now, the city of Mumbai finds itself coming to a halt every time the rain gods are a little more generous than usual.

In the recent spell of showers, the city reported one of its highest rainfalls at 375.2 mm since 2005 that not only flooded most of the low lying areas but also disrupted public transport services and the roads. For those commuting then, it is imperative to know which areas are flooded and which aren't in Mumbai. To make things easier, Google Maps has been updated with a new feature that allows users to check for waterlogged areas and look for alternate routes instead.1 min read
