About VDOT 511 Virginia Traffic

This application is compatible with Android devices running versions 4.1 and higher.

The Virginia 511 mobile application is the official source for traffic information from the Virginia Department of Transportation. A map based interface provides access to current and future road work, current incidents and traffic speeds, winter road conditions, scheduled bridge openings, and other events across the state. In addition, over 800 live video feeds are available to view in real-time from the state's roadside traffic cameras, with the ability to swipe to quickly move between cameras along a roadway.

The information, which is regularly and automatically updated from VDOT sources, is provided to the user both visually on the map, as well as through available voice alerts. The user can select basic mode, which limits visual feedback, and automatically provides voice alerts for upcoming events (in the next 5-15 miles) as the user travels down the road without interfacing with the device.

Current travel times are available for many pre-defined routes throughout the state, including all interstates and select primary routes. The user can select favorites from the list to view frequently traveled routes quickly and easily. A searchable list of road conditions is also available to view winter conditions, flooding impacts and other weather-related events for all interstate, primary and secondary routes maintained by VDOT throughout the state.

A “Reach The Beach” feature helps beach-goers by providing the latest travel times for multiple routes to and from Virginia Beach and the Outer Banks. As the user approaches a key decision point, the voice feature of the application will tell the user what the current travel times are from that point to the chosen destination via various options. When leaving the beach, the user can chose from one of four “Home “ destinations of Richmond, Fredericksburg, Skippers or Chesapeake.

Real-time commuting information is available for commuters along the I-95/395 corridor in Northern Virginia through the application. This feature includes a map with real-time traffic speeds along the I-95/395 HOV lanes, as well as real-time status of VRE trains. Detailed information is also provided on the map for PRTC commuter bus routes and schedules as well as available park and ride lots along the corridor. A trip planner is provided for travel time and speed comparisons between the regular and HOV lanes for user-selected origins and destinations along the corridor. The trip planner also provides the real-time VRE schedules and the scheduled options along the PRTC bus routes.

Finally, access to VDOT's 511 Twitter feeds is also provided, with tweets on traffic incidents available statewide or for specific regions or corridors.

This app is great. I used it to plan my route on Thanksgiving Wednesday and my return trip. Virginia has installed so many cameras on the major interstates that there is no more guess work involved. You need to have a passenger watching it to take full advantage.

Why is it when you turn that stupid annoying auto update voice off, that even more annoying popup won't go the hell away. I don't need the app to read to me. When I turn it off, I want it to stay the hell off!

This app is an absolute godsend to us truckers. I want people to know that it's probably the case--that when a camera's image is a black blank, that it is probably not the fault of the app itself, but likely a maintenence issue with the actual cameras installed on poles on highway. These cameras are subject to the abuse of outdoor weather. The app itself I regard as the benchmark of the 511 traffic apps. This app is SIMPLE TO USE. Simplicity is golden to hustled travelers. (Yoo hoo, West Virginia !You need to scrap yer app and model a new one after this Virginia app

Very unstable app... Crashes a lot.. Leaning towards uninstalling... I'm sure there are better, more user friendly apps for this application...

Great for knowing where and when bridge lifts are and heavy back ups.

M70%
by M####:

Outstanding. One of the apps I rely on most. They did an exceptional job with recent updates. I check this before heading to/from work. The live camera feeds are obviously more up to the minute than the traffic color codes on the map apps.
