How to report road closures on Maps during a crisis

@AriMar exactly what I was looking for. There were a few Road closures in my area recently that I didn’t know how to report. This is going to do wonders for directing traffic.

Thank you very much for this update, @AriMar and Google team.

But wasn’t road closure during a crisis like this needs approval first from the authority, so the users could get the right and updated information during crisis?

But an update like this is very appreciated. Very useful… :))

Gracias por los avances en este tema “crisis” y el esfuerzo Mapas está haciendo en él, es muy importante. Ya que también es tener en cuenta el punto de la crisis en que se vive, si es puntual y controlada o que están enviando información de nuestros informes de información a los mapas de crisis cada vez mayor y son varias, teniendo en cuenta los nuevos cambios. Con esto se puede pensar en una inundación o un incendio crisis entre muchos otros, donde pueden ser notificados hasta kilómetros de calles cerradas. Crisis controlada o aumentando o disminuyendo. Un punto muy importante a considerar es el momento en el que le enviamos la información, cuando recibimos la confirmación de los datos aportados aceptados y más que eso, es cuando se aplican y los nuevos cambios se pueden ver en los mapas. Es un placer escuchar un video en español.
Saludos para el progreso
Adelante

@AriMar this doesn’t work in the Philippines, right?

Since the Crisis Card feature is not available in my Android phone, I tried using the Dropped Pin option. Found out however that there is also no Report A Problem Option after “dropping the pin”. :disappointed_relieved:

This is a life-saving feature for a country like the Philippines that has suffered from an inexhaustible number of deadly typhoons, earthquakes, volcano eruptions and other natural disasters. This is due to its location along the Ring of Fire, or typhoon belt – a large Pacific Ocean region where many of Earth’s volcanic eruptions and earthquakes occur.

I hope this feature is activated in my country. Thank you. :philippines: #LetsGuide #LetsSaveLives

It’s a great update and really a better solution for closure notification on Google Maps and of course it’s a great feature for Maps users. When I was visiting Winston Salem, North Carolina I got the notification automatically from Google Maps about this feature to know the better route to go where a road was closed for further developement works by the state authority. Thanks @AriMar for updating & sharing of this advance feature on Google Maps.
