Looking at traffic on the map

Traffic incidents are shown on the map. If several traffic incidents overlap the highest priority
incident is shown - for example, a road closure is higher priority than road works or a closed lane.
Tip: Select an incident on the map to see more detailed information.
1. Traffic incident that affects your route in your direction of travel.
A symbol or number at the start of the incident shows the type of incident or the delay in
minutes, for example 5 minutes.
The symbols are in the order that they occur on your route. For traffic
incidents, the symbol for each incident alternates between showing the
type of incident and the delay in minutes. Select a symbol to see more
information about a stop, an incident or a speed camera. If a symbol is
shown on top of another symbol, selecting the symbols zooms in on the
route bar to show each symbol separately. You can then select a symbol.
The total time delay due to traffic jams, weather, and other incidents on
your route, including information provided by IQ Routes, is shown above
the symbols.
