Local sources

Traffic information is only relevant when the user’s space and time coordinates overlap with the broadcasted incident. Locally relevant messages are what makes traffic broadcasts usable and applicable for the user during their trip. The ANWB publishes local traffic news for regional broadcasters. Navigation systems receive traffic alerts from the ANWB about traffic jams and incidents occurring in their proximity area.

Up-to-date reports

It is very important that knowledge of local events is collected timely by ANWB. After all, traffic situations change rapidly. When a driver enters traffic jam which is forming, advice is already too late. A detour around the congestion is no longer possible. Only with current traffic information can road users be correctly informed.

Relevant advice.

“Chance of black ice on roads across the region.’ is not sufficient information. A driver on the road wants to know exactly where on her route the road is slippery.”

Arnoud Broekhuis, Manager at ANWB Traffic Information

Traffic Information just got better.

“Simacan Traffic Cast offers us many more sources deserving our attention. This has improved the traffic information we broadcast.”

Edwin Gerritsen, Traffic News Reader at ANWB Traffic Information
Messages compiled automatically

Together, the sources provide complete and detailed information. A double notification about the same congestion is automatically combined by Simacan Traffic Cast. Into one composite message.

The story behind the traffic

The ANWB Traffic editors are specialized in enriching the traffic information. To add the story behind the traffic jams, the editorial staff has extra sources available: expected delay time, causes of incidents, planned roadworks, and weather reports.

The latest traffic news

The broadcasters edit the traffic messages directly to add the backgrounds. The edited messages are saved in a format that is ready for export, for example to navigation systems. During radio broadcasts, the editors read the current news immediately from Simacan Traffic Cast.
