Looking at traffic on the map

Traffic incidents are shown on the map. If several traffic incidents overlap the highest priority incident is shown - for example, a road closure is higher priority than road works or a closed lane.

Tip: Select an incident on the map to see more detailed information.

1. Traffic incident that affects your route in your direction of travel.

   A symbol or number at the start of the incident shows the type of incident or the delay in minutes, for example 5 minutes.

   The colour of the incident indicates the speed of traffic relative to the maximum allowed speed at that location, with red being the slowest. The stripes on the traffic jam are also animated to show the speed of the traffic, where appropriate.

   For a complete list of incident types, see Traffic incidents.

   Tip: You see weather symbols on the map if there is bad weather such as heavy rain or snow.

2. Traffic incident on your route but in the opposite direction of travel.
3. Traffic incidents on roads that are not visible at your current zoom level.
