Nokia Maps gets real time traffic info across 16 European countries

Nokia has introduced Real Time Traffic Information (RTTI) in sixteen European countries to its Nokia Maps service.

Nokia is providing the service in association with ARC Transistance, the European network of automobile clubs, which includes the UK’s Automobile Association.

The service will be offered as a premium offering in Nokia Maps 2.0 and in future versions of Nokia Maps.

"By adding RTTI, Nokia can save precious time for drivers by alerting them of traffic, construction or other road hazards that could affect their journey. When Nokia Maps receives the road updates from ARC Transistance, the application can dynamicly re-route during navigation and provide a faster route," Nokia’s press release informs us.
