Restriction alerts are introduced by Google Maps, which helps travellers get to and from their destinations as safe and sound as possible. Google Maps have added a feature to notify its users about the route they want to use for their journey. It informs the users whether their way is affected by COVID-19 restrictions or not. This feature reminds the users whether they are suitable to attend the medical facility to avoid being turned away. Alerts related to medical assistance are now available in a few countries like the U.S, South Korea, the Philippines, and Indonesia.
