Novosibirsk, Nizhny Novgorod, Rostov-on-Don: now with traffic jams!
- From RSS
Motorists of three Russian cities - Novosibirsk, Nizhny Novgorod and Rostov-on-Don - from today have received a new convenient tool: displaying the current traffic jam picture on the city map in real time. Previously, this service was available only to residents of Moscow, St. Petersburg, Kiev and Yekaterinburg, but now the army of motorists with a traffic jam map is expanding! ;-)
The service is currently in beta mode. This means that in these cities we show traffic jams and speed of movement along them, however we do not count points and do not show the color of traffic lights yet - but in the future we will definitely do this.
We also want to draw your attention to the fact that the quality and reliability of sample data is in your hands. Download the “ Yandex.Maps Mobile ” application , install it on your cell phone with a GPS receiver and create a picture of traffic jams. The more mobile users will be in your city, the more detailed and more accurate will be the traffic jam map. And “ mobile Yandex.Maps ” will help you go around traffic jams right on the road in real time.
Free to you dear!
