In order to streamline data sharing with Google Maps, since they don't take WMS, there could be a geoprocessing tool that allows you to export the authoritative addresses, centerlines, road closures, points of interest etc to a shapefile (as Google requests) with the required fields (with field matching like it does now when exporting) for the Geo Data Uploader and then it has a sign-on connection for the Geo Data Uploader for Google Maps.
Step 1 would be connecting to the geodatabase that you want to share
Step 2 would be selecting which type of Geo Data Uploader Content it is from a drop down
Step 3 would be matching the fields to the required Geo Data Uploader Fields dynamic based on the previous selection
Step 4 would be entering in Geo Data Uploader credentials (like for YouTube in Adobe Premier Pro)
Run!
Google suggests doing quarterly batch updates from local agencies, so maybe there's some restrictions like an administrator gives one person access to the tool to process... or there's some sort of "submitted on behalf of the agency" option... not sure!
Think Google could get on board?? Is this a conflict of interest? 😅
