JUST LAUNCHED: Speed Traps & Traffic Info… Live!

You asked for it, and you got it! I am excited to announce that– due in large part to our tremendous local traction– SaveNewport has just inked paperwork to finalize our official partnership deal with Google’s Waze service– only the second of such partnerships in the nation! This deal has allowed us to create a new, permanently dynamic page which tracks police, traffic, accident, and construction activity on our local roads.  We now run and host this information live 24 hours/day and always available for your review, at http://savenewport.com/traffic/

Want to know the best way around traffic?  Want to know the “hot spots” for police looking to issue tickets today, or the areas where you might hit congestion because of accidents or construction?  This is all relayed to you in real-time in just a click of a URL.

If you’re going to be on the road, we highly recommend the Waze application, which will show you all of this information as well as automatically routing you the fastest way to your destination, all auto-updated in real-time with the turn-by-turn directions that you’re used to with your current GPS application!

So the next time you’re sitting at your desktop and you want to plan a trip, see the traffic, accidents, check out the new police hiding spots, or just scope out the general road conditions, just remember “savenewport.com slash traffic” will bring you more comprehensive information than any other news source covering our area– hands down.
