嫌地铁和公交太挤?谷歌地图现在能帮到你!

发布时间：2019-07-19 编辑：查字典英语网小编

Google announced a new feature that will help you avoid crowded buses - at least if you have a choice of when to commute.

谷歌宣布了一项新功能，能帮助你避开拥挤的公交车--如果你可以选择通勤时间的话。

Google Maps for Android and iOS is receiving an update that gives you information on how crowded a bus typically is at the time of day when you're planning to ride it. For instance, it might say that there's "usually standing room only" if the bus is crowded.

谷歌地图在安卓和iOS设备上做了一次更新，能提供信息，告诉你在你准备出行的时段，公交车通常有多挤。比如说，如果公交车很挤的话，谷歌地图可能会说“通常只有供站立的位置了”。

The feature reminds me a bit of another, where Google can tell you if the establishment you're about to visit, like a restaurant, is typically crowded at that time of day and if you can expect to wait.

这项功能让我想起了一些其他的东西，谷歌可以告诉你你要去的地方那个时段是否拥挤，你是否需要等待，比如说餐馆。

The update also includes new information on delays, like if the bus is a few minutes behind in traffic. Now you'll know that it's still coming.

这次更新也包括了新的有关延误的信息，比如公交车是否要晚到几分钟。现在你就会知道公交车还在路上了。

Google already had information on arrivals for subways, trains and buses in cities that provide it with public information, but now it's offering this in other cities with traffic data it gathers on its own. The feature is available in 200 cities around the world, Google said.

谷歌已经有一些城市的地铁、火车、公交车到达信息了，这些城市会为之提供公共信息，但是现在谷歌在提供其他城市的交通数据，这些数据是谷歌自己收集的。谷歌称，这项功能在世界上200个城市中可用。

To try these features, simply launch Google Maps on your iPhone or Android device and then plan a bus route. If you don't see the information yet, it might not be rolled out to your location yet.

要使用这项功能的话，只需打开你苹果或是安卓设备上的谷歌地图，然后规划公交路线。如果你现在还没有看到信息，那可能是还没有覆盖到你所在的区域。
