TRAFFIC INFORMATION

transmitted information about traffic flow and
events.

Traffic disturbances such as compact and slow
traffic, road works, accidents etc. are shown with
different symbols on the map.
When disturbances are more severe their extent
is also shown with a RED line along the side of
the road, e.g. in the event of road works. The line
indicates at the same time in which travel direc-
tion the disturbance applies - if the disturbance is
in both directions the road section is marked with
a line on both sides.
