App does not work with road closures.
-
Looking at a route through a known road closure that Apple and Google maps identify however the app just routes through it.

Google is always going to win in terms of live traffic, since it monitors people's phones/devices whilst they're driving - that's not data which MRA has access to / can afford.MRA has some information:
However that's not good enough, I agree. It's showing road works, not a closure - that's misleading.
And here's one.network, which is more independent than Google, and tells you the reason:
I would expect MRA's traffic supplier (HERE?) to have a more accurate feed.
-
Unfortunately, the roadworks or closures are not always up to date at HERE. We have to live with that. Or check everything with Google.

@Jörgen A free service I would live with it, but this is a subscription service and should be correct especially as the free services are correct, this is a documented closure.
-
@HighPeakRider You are no paying ONLY for the correctness of such data, the App is more than this. And MRA is dependent on the Here data.
I don't see it so critically. -
@HighPeakRider MRA will probably never be able to compete with specialty apps such as Google Maps and Waze especially for A to B routing. It's strength lies in other areas.
