Description
Show the latest traffic and travel information for England and Scotland on your phone.
Search for the nearest traffic problem to you.
Sort incident list by time, distance or severity.
Show incidents as a list or on a Google map.
Search around a location or along a custom route.
You can customise your searches for example :-
* Show traffic and roadworks along my route to work.
* Show traffic within 5 miles of Heathrow airport.
* Show traffic for the whole of England and Scotland.
Your favorite searches can be saved so that you can access them again quickly.
Data is read from the Highways Agency and Traffic Scotland traffic feeds and stored locally in a database for instant access, so even if you have not got a data connection, you will see the traffic details from your last update.
Data is updated in the background automatically, so upon refreshing you will see up to the minute traffic news.

Compared to RAC app. This had 12, RAC had 18. Not bad but might be missing some information.

Would be fantastic if it allowed searching along a selected route. Instead it searches a completely different route of its choosing!

Accurate and timely, but sometimes slow to load maps view which is more convenient, so 4 stars only. HTC desire HD
