"Road Closed"- Problem. How to Slove?

SajolKDas · January 30, 2021, 11:51am

Recently I found this issue regarding Road Closed!!

How to solve this issue in real-time when I am at that place?

Sometimes I see these types of Road Closed enabled on the Google map. But physically this is not closed at all. I’m getting attention to solve this issue.

Google Map location: https://goo.gl/maps/NHYK8c2HnNSg8a8N6

Geo Locations: 24°31’10.6"N 88°50’50.4"E

District: Rajshahi

Country: Bangladesh

I truly believe that these will be solved soon. I am tagging @DeniGu .

Thank You

Hey @SajolKDas

Roads are often temporarily closed by the authority for road repairing work.

If there is no any work in progressl Please click on red icon and then a question is displayed on your screen.

Is this road closed now?

If it is not closed select ‘No’

Hello @SajolKDas

When I click on the road mentioned in the link, I get the following prompt at the bottom.

But knowing from some earlier posts, that the feature is not available in your region.

In that case, you have the following options.

Report the issue in the community tab of Maps support forum. The link is here.

https://support.google.com/maps

Another option is to request your regional authorities to arrange an update through the content partner program.

You will learn more about that at this link.

Thank you @NareshDarji and @C_T .

I am using the Google Maps of the IOS version. On this operating system, I couldn’t get the reporting option so that I could not report as NO for the “Is this road closed now” question. But I checked and got the options from my sister’s Android.

thanks for your prompt response.
