Gurugram Police and Google Maps Roll Out Real-Time Speed Alerts on 129 Roads

An Android-first integration adds posted limits with virtual warnings on crash-prone corridors to back new automated enforcement.

Overview

  • The feature displays speed limits and flags accident‑prone stretches inside Google Maps across key city routes starting this week.
  • Initial coverage targets NH‑48, Dwarka Expressway, Sohna Road, Golf Course Extension Road and the KMP Expressway.
  • Officials plan to expand the system to more than 200 roads by early next year after the city’s pilot phase.
  • Police say the alerts complement stepped‑up use of ANPR cameras, drone monitoring and digital challans, alongside recent FIRs and vehicle seizures on NH‑48.
  • The push follows stark crash data, including 345 deaths and over 580 injuries so far this year after 448 fatalities and more than 1,000 accidents in 2024.
