Google Maps has introduce a new mode particularly for Indian market called Two Wheeler mode (v9.67.1) . You just need to update your google maps. This mode on Google Maps will show routes that are accessible only by two wheeler. Many of these roads shown on the two wheeler mode will be too narrow for cars. This mode will allow two wheeler users to get to their destinations faster, and also use short-cuts that cars cannot. The ETA(Estimated Time) will be calculated based on the data received exclusively from bikers and not from the traditional ETA data which is derived from four-wheelers on the road. This will make a huge difference, as normally in congested traffic areas, bikers can move more freely than car drivers. It also shows you the time where you get the most traffic so that you can plan your journey in advance.
