Yahoo maps offer live U.S. traffic conditions

by admin on December 17th, 2004

News.com reports that Yahoo is offering an online service that lets users view live U.S. local traffic conditions on custom-created maps, making it the first site to do so nationally, the company said late Wednesday.

In a milestone for Internet-based traffic services, Yahoo has beefed up its existing mapping services to allow customers to plot a route from one local destination to another, and overlay traffic data such as road speeds and potential delays.

The new service can be found at http://maps.yahoo.com/.
