New Service on OneMap: TrafficQuery! Part 2

Posted by OneMap | Monday, June 18, 2012 | Category: |

We are back with part 2 of the TrafficQuery Service! Let's continue with Live Traffic Camera, Electronic Road Pricing (ERP) and Parking Lots Availability. :)

It is nice to know how heavy the traffic is using the Traffic Speed Service as described in part 1 but it is definitely much better if you can see for yourself the road conditions! By checking the Live Traffic Camera box, roads with camera are displayed as icons on the map. Click on any of those to view the live traffic flow captured from these cameras.


Seems like traffic is pretty smooth during lunch time!

For drivers heading to city central, you may want to check out the ERP rates before you go and ensure there is sufficient value in your cashcard. :) Once again, select the the ERP option and the ERP gantries will be displayed on the map. Click on gantries that you will drive through and check the rates. You can click on the drop down arrow and select the type of vehicle and also the day of the week (weekdays or Saturday). Nice one!


Finally, we have the parking lot availability service. This is especially useful if you know the availability of lots in a particular car park is getting low, you may wish to park somewhere else near. The greatest thing about this service is that it is also real time, though the information of these parking lot availability comes mainly from the city central malls. 


That's all we have for you for TrafficQuery! Hope you like it. :)
