How do I use TrafficJammr?

March 23rd, 2008

TrafficJammr is designed to show you traffic problems and traffic jams on the UK's roads and motorways, we show each incident as a flag on the map, and the different coloured flags give you an idea of how severe each event is.

  • Very slight problems. You might not even notice them.
  • Slight problems.
  • Medium raffic problems.
  • Severe traffic problems, probably best to go a different way.
  • Very severe problems, you really don't want to go here.

You can click on each flag and the map will zoom in to show you the part of the road affected, and give you a description of the traffic problem, as well as an estimate of when the problem will be cleared.

Enter your postcode in the box to recenter the map on that location, as I said the other day, it isn't as accurate as I'd like, but it does a job. Tick the Remember box to have the map center on this postcode each time you visit TrafficJammr, otherwise the map will center on the last place you looked.

Underneath the map is a key to the flag meanings, you can also click these to show and hide that class of incident.

I hope you find TrafficJammr useful, but if you don't I'd really like to know why. Either way, leave a comment, I'd love to hear from you
