I live in a growing country, there is new roads and extensions, I would like to help others by updating these new roads that save time and effort, for example I went to new Dakar airport using google map direction, but in my return I found a new road better and shorter than that exist on google map, and till now this new road not recorded as a road in google map although this is the official new road and more secure than the suggested. I would like to know if there is tool to modify the road especially Map Maker is not available.

SolutionIt is likely as time goes on more edit abilities will come to the Maps app. However its unlikely that a full general tool like MapMaker will make an appearance. There were issues particularly in some communities with people inappropriately using MapMaker that spoiled it for everyone.

No there are no tools like Map Maker. Google will do edits that we request, if they can verify that the edits are correct. These instructions tell you how to ask Google to make road edits:

I think a tool like mapmaker that lets you draw roads and paths should be added in
