Title: Traffic App ?
Post by: Donnywolf on August 21, 2021, 06:53:13 am

Any suggestions pls for Phone App
Trax FM wasnt brilliant but better than nowt but has gone of course and yesterday it took 2 hours to do 15 min journey cos of something on M18 near J4
If I had an App I could have avoided it [maybe}

Google maps has traffic congestion if you have your location setting on

Google Maps is the obvious choice. Offers you a faster alternative route if the one you're currently on becomes delayed.

I find that if I put the satnav on it tells me where the congestion ahead is and how long a delay is likely to be.
