Traditionally, summer is the time chosen by many municipalities to enjoy and renew street paving, undertake reforms more or less transcendental… In addition, you can easily find everything there, from Sunday demonstrations to parties in the different neighborhoods. The result is that the street or route you take to get to work could be closed. Apple Maps can help us a lot on our next trip.
Cuts on the Paseo de la Castellana and the M50
The Paseo de la Castellana is indirectly immersed in several works, but that affect the traffic along it. For example, we have the work in progress at the Santiago Bernabéu and its parking lot. Added to this is the modification of the metro station of line 10 that is located next to the stadium. Some of the works will last until August, although the date is flexible and may affect different sections.
The same thing will happen with the M-50, which is currently rehabilitation at various points with improvement of signage and paving. Every day it will advance and could affect directions and connections with other roads such as the M-45 near San Fernando de Henares.
Apple Maps alerts you to outages with daily updates
The year 2012 is far away, when Apple has ventured into the world of maps. More than a decade later, it is one of the most complete navigation applications that exist, and even more so in urban centers like Madrid or Barcelona, where they have special functions for traveling by car.
A quick glance at the Maps app with the traffic layer turned on will help you see where the roadblocks are in your city. If you click on them, You will have detailed information and the date of update of the work or the closed street. In addition, when preparing a route, Apple Maps will take this into account to redirect you to other routes. Something basic that other applications like Google Maps or Waze also do.
Using Apple Maps is a pleasure with CarPlay or a MagSafe accessory to always keep the route in view. Plus, with the latest updates, you’ll have much more information than in other apps, like zareas where stopping is prohibited, direction of a specific lane… Beyond the work, the experience with Apple Maps while driving is clearly superior.
