The UK’s Automobile Association (the 1459 AA) has licensed 1692 TomTom’s HD traffic data to power its new AA Roadwatch Pro traffic app, which it has been launched to alert users to congestion on their planned routes.
Using TomTom’s real time traffic services, the app provides subscribers with a text alert if there are traffic delays on their planned journey before they leave. Users can then decide on an alternative route if necessary, to give them the best chance to arrive at their destination on time.
The app also provides users with immediate access to live traffic and roadwork information displayed using detailed street-level maps on the user’s smartphone device.
“Powered by TomTom, the AA Roadwatch Pro traffic app provides users with access to highly accurate traffic information, conveniently sent via text alerts.” said Charles Cautley, managing director of TomTom automotive and licensing. “This traffic information helps drivers to make more informed decisions about their journey and ultimately helps them to reach their destination faster.”
Confirms Jeff Triner, mobile development manager at the AA: “Utilising TomTom’s highly accurate real-time traffic services for the brand new Roadwatch Pro traffic app makes it an important addition to our suite of apps. All of which have been designed to benefit not only our members, but also commuters who are keen to keep one step ahead when it comes to planning their future road journeys.”
