Google Maps ‘closed’ the A22 for a day and then reopened it: cars invade Vipiteno

Yesterday morning, Friday 30 June, the Brenner motorway was closed, so Google Maps said. The system invited motorists to exit at Vipiteno (usually not very busy), causing several inconveniences. The problem is that there was no outage, Google decided that was the case.

In particular, the navigator reported a motorway interruption near Raminges, just beyond the crossing of the Montecavallo cable car above the A22; the congestion on the streets of the town in the upper Isarco valley lasted all morning. Furthermore, the queue that formed in front of the small toll booth soon spread to the highway, blocking travelers unaware of the phantom blockade who intended to continue straight.

A Google spokesperson said: “We were made aware of the issue and the relevant team worked quickly to find a solution“. It remains to be clarified what caused this serious error which, as reported by Autobrennero in a note, “since yesterday morning has (Google Maps) a stretch of motorway has been ‘dematerialised’, prompting numerous motorists heading north to exit at the Vipiteno motorway station and continue their journey along ordinary roads up to Austria“.

Meanwhile, the light panels along the transalpine artery motorists were promptly informed that the highway was not blocked. Subsequently, Google Maps technicians eliminated the bug and restored the correct directions (we invite you to take a look at 5 tips to optimize your experience with Google Maps)

Speaking of roads, the French project for a “solar” road in Tourouvre, in the Orne, was a failure. Inaugurated in 2016 in the presence of minister Ségolène Royal, the stretch it was covered with solar panels with the aim of providing energy to local homes; today it has all been dismantled due to technical problems, structural failures and noise pollution.
