Google has rolled out a new feature in Maps application that will guide the user with quickest routes to reach their destination.

Google has partnered with Transport New South Wales in Sydney. This partnership helps users in Sydney to get the status update of crowded local trains and buses. The update also notifies delays in public transportation services. Another feature of this update is the mixed-mode commutes.

Google has already rolled out this new update over 80 regions and would do so further. The crucial last feature added to this update is thoughtful. Why so?, because Google knows that there are users who love to listen to music during their transits. What better way to make it better with Google Maps, it is the integration of music apps like Google Play Music, Apple Music and Spotify. With this, users can simultaneously check their next route to be taken as well as play/pause the next song or browse the music content, without changing the application.
