Tigerspike have been working with Transport since 2010 to find new and innovative ways to make live traffic data accessible to the public. Tigerspike provides the full spectrum of services, for the product life-cycle, from the inception of an idea to its implementation. The Live Traffic app is multi-platform, servicing the needs of iPad, iPhone, and Android users, utilizing the capabilities that the most recent Apple and Google operating systems have to offer.

Key features:

  • Real time traffic data allows drivers to view incidents near their current location, or search by area
  • Real time camera images from over 80 real-time live traffic cameras
  • Critical incident banner alerts
  • Trip planner, with travel times
  • Google traffic data
  • Text to Speech for real time driver alerts.

 

Some of the new updates include:

  • Critical incident banner
  • Region filter / selectors
  • Contextual tutorial
  • Google traffic data/travel times
  • Text to Speech facilitating real-time updates throughout their journey
  • Gestures to drop / move pins in ‘my trips

 

Due to the innovative use of Google services and technologies Google will be featuring the app via their own media channels.

Live Traffic service has transformed the way drivers access real-time traffic information on the move with over 780,000 downloads. The success of the app has also inspired other departments within NSW Government to re-evaluate how web-based services are offered and look at how personal technology can enable improved services and information.
