Again it has come up with a few improvements to how maps are represented on mobile devices.

For a long time, Google Maps has made an alert for users to get knowledge about toll roads. Also, one can make a setting that allows you to avert toll routes if planning trips or using switch navigation. Google, on the other hand, steps ahead, even by showcasing approximate toll fare for an entire route. The evidence comes from “local tolling agencies” and is looking at the existing day of the week. Also, it considers the duration when the user can arrive at the destination. As per Google, the feature will be accessible soon for “nearly 2000 toll roads in the United States, India, Japan, & Indonesia.”
