The Missouri Department of Transportation’s Traveler Information Map is now accessible through internet browsers on mobile devices. The update allows the map to be displayed on mobile devices without having to download the Traveler Information Map App. Customers can now view traveler information three ways: desktop, mobile and app.
The map provides the traveling public with traffic updates, road conditions and closures, as well as winter road conditions. More customers can now access this information through their mobile device’s browser. The mobile app version will still be available for download and will provide the same up-to-date information. When the app is installed on a device, it will launch in place of the mobile browser version.
“MoDOT’s Traveler Information Map provides a great service to the traveling public, allowing them to check road closures and conditions and plan accordingly to avoid interruptions to their trip,” said MoDOT Safety and Emergency Management Director Chris Engelbrecht. “More importantly, when weather conditions aren’t ideal, it helps our customers stay informed of impacts to the roads and make decisions to remain safe.”
“Customer feedback over the past five years has shown that our users aren’t always able to add the mobile app to their device or would rather not download the app,” said Engelbrecht. “The mobile update allows us to serve more customers.”
In 2023, the Traveler Information Map and corresponding app saw more than 7 million views and an average user engagement time of seven minutes.
