Adding cycling routes

There's no map maker anymore and the cycling layer of my area is pretty poor. Any solution? There's any way to change the attributes of a road?

Re: Adding cycling routes

Hello,

 

At this time there is no way to edit such details.  You could submit a request via "Send Feedback -> Other feedback", but there is no guarantee as to how that will be treated; they might change the attributes for you or they might just log it to help decide the priority of it being added in the future to Maps editing.  You should know that the queue for Other Feedback is extremely long and to add routes within a network you'd have to make multiple such requests.

Thank you @Flash and @deepakjhic for the answers. Hopefully in the future Google will add this possibility.

Re: Adding cycling routes

I am totally in favour of updating Google with Non motorized Trails and pathways.  Since Mapmaker has closed the map of the community has stayed static. Parks and Trails in the area are not shown correctly and there's not much you can do about updating them.

Re: Adding cycling routes

This is a big weakness of current Local Guides methodology. I have pathways data to share and google has no methods to insert data.

Re: Adding cycling routes

Is there any news or update on this situation? I would love to be able to help with mapping more cycle routes. Google Maps is such a great tool for pulling together the routes into one easy to use resource.

 

I know we can use the feedback function, but its really unwieldy for large sections of unmapped paths.

 

Thanks!

It would be nice if Google updated this.
