Google adds live traffic on Maps in three new countries

Google has expanded their live traffic coverage in three new markets.

Google Maps would now show live traffic in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia; Kuwait City, Kuwait and Guayaquil, Ecuador.

The company added:

We’ve also improved the live traffic information to include more roads and highways in 15 regions where this popular feature of Google Maps is already available: Australia, Brazil, Canada, Czech Republic, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Japan, Portugal, Puerto Rico, Russia, Sweden, the U.K., and the U.S.

Google Maps Live Traffic uses crowdsourcing to get latest up-to-date information which is available on both desktops and mobile devices. Users can use this information to chart out a route to their destination with less congestion.
