The Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) has partnered with Waze to launch the next generation version of the Virginia 511 application. Through working with Waze, this updated application offers users on-demand, real-time traffic information pertaining to road conditions, congestion, highway work zones, etc. As a result of the partnership, users can also sign up to receive navigation, parking, and transit notifications. The new version of Virginia 511 will appear to users as an update to the previous app. VDOT hopes that by using Waze’s Deep Links Application program interface, people in Virginia will have an easier and more reliable travel experience.
