Govt commissioner: Google launches cycle route planner in Hungary

After almost three years of preparations, Google has launched its cycle route planner app in Hungary, Mariusz Revesz, government commissioner for an active Hungary, told a press conference on Tuesday. Revesz noted that the app has been created in cooperation with the foreign ministry, cycling NGOs and Hungarian public road administration companies. The route planner covers all of Budapest's cycle routes and around 80 percent of routes elsewhere in the country, Pal Biro, the head of Google's Hungarian unit, said, adding that all routes nationwide will soon be included.
