Google Maps Platform’s Post

Relevant visual details make maps more useful. That's why we introduced Road Level Details this year ➡️ https://goo.gle/43LPbsa Maps now show: 🚸 Sidewalks and crosswalks for improved walkability 🛣️ Accurately scaled road widths, centerlines, and medians for better visualization 🚲 Lane markings and special-use lanes 🏞️ Pathways and stairs in parks 🚖 Clearer lane visibility to better anticipate merges, forks, and exits All automatically integrated into your basemap styles across our Maps and Navigation SDKs.

Glad to see this. It would be more nice, if streetview along the sidewalks are recognised/captured so that landscape of the locality will be felt virtually by people like me loving to explore various places without spending ;). Not only that, walkability also increases when these nano level details are available in your phone.
