M4 Don - traffic jams are now on the online map. Yandex.Traffic: how it works and how to use it correctly on a computer, iOS and Android “Yandex” has compiled a schedule of Moscow traffic jams

Moscow ring road (MKAD) - a highway in Moscow, a ring road, which since the early 1960s has coincided with the administrative border of the city.

Since the 1980s, Moscow began to include areas outside the Moscow Ring Road, and currently the administrative border of the city runs only partially along the ring road. In the section from Abramtsevo to Yaroslavskoye Highway, the MKAD highway runs in the Losiny Ostrov National Park.

MKAD was built in 1956 and was opened to traffic along its entire length in 1962. Reconstructed in 1995-1998. In 2011, Moscow authorities announced the preparation of another complete reconstruction of the Moscow Ring Road. It is planned to redo transport interchanges, build backups of the Moscow Ring Road (including on the site of above-ground power lines), and build transport hubs near the ring road.

MKAD along its entire length there are no single-level intersections with other transport routes; traffic is carried out in five lanes in each direction. The capacity (as of 2011) is 9 thousand cars per hour, the permitted speed is 100 kilometers/hour. At the intersection with the North-Eastern Expressway, together with the head section of the Moscow-St. Petersburg expressway (M-11), there is the largest and only five-level transport interchange in Russia - Businovskaya.

Traffic jams are a very pressing problem today, especially for very large cities, such as Moscow. Therefore, traffic jams in Moscow now are no less than last year. Their number is constantly increasing, and the situation on the roads is becoming more complicated all the time. The transport problem is the most important task for the capital of Russia. According to data from official sources, quite a lot of funds from the state budget are currently allocated for this.

Solving traffic jam problems thanks to the capabilities of Internet technologies.

Organizations associated with the latest technologies are also trying to solve the problem of traffic jams. These include search engines Yandex and Google with their multi-million audiences. At the same time, Yandex traffic jams in Moscow allow this and monitor it using their video cameras. Yandex also has information from security cameras located in the city and other systems that control traffic on the roads.

In addition, it is possible to see Yandex traffic jams in Moscow and the Moscow region online. For this purpose, there is an accessible interactive map, where traffic jams and vehicle speeds are marked. Here you can even find out the reason for the formation of a traffic jam. Thus, the Yandex map will now show traffic jams in Moscow in real time, and without the slightest error. In addition, it creates conditions for creating detour routes. This service has become available even from a mobile phone and tablet. All information on the map is constantly updated.

A large well-known company is Google. The advantage of this search engine is that traffic jams in Moscow and the Moscow region immediately become known online. This company also has a larger number of visitors. It provides information about the movement of cars throughout Russia, as well as in many countries of the world.

Major traffic jams in Moscow

Hours-long traffic jams on the roads of Moscow and the Moscow region have now become very common. They appear on almost all main highways. In Moscow these include:

  • Sadovoe
  • 3rd transport
  • Boulevard Ring
  • MKAD.

Therefore, the main task of the road reforms carried out by the Moscow government is to increase the capacity of the Moscow Ring Road. There is an intention to move all business beyond the Moscow Ring Road, for example, factories, offices, and also to build a new railway ring road, approximately 20-40 kilometers from the location of the Moscow Ring Road. All entrance routes to the city will subsequently connect to it. Thus, traffic in the city center should decrease significantly. But this requires a large investment of money and time, so this proposal is designed for the long term.

Recent data suggests that traffic jams can be seen in some of the most dangerous areas. These are the interchanges of the Moscow Ring Road and the Third Transport Ring Road, where large radial highways are located. Here, at the entrances and exits, traffic flows intersect and drivers need to constantly change lanes, which is accompanied by frequent collisions. Most often, the Yandex map of the Moscow Ring Road now issues messages about where traffic jams are located in Moscow. This phenomenon can especially be observed when traveling to the region. Yandex also now shows traffic jams in Moscow online in the area of ​​​​the transition to Shchelkovskoye Highway at the exit to the Moscow Ring Road. Another common place for traffic jams is the interchange of the Third Transport Ring, as well as Leningradsky Prospekt. This is where a lot of accidents happen.

Traffic jams on radial roads

On radial routes they occur at large junctions. For example, a map of traffic jams in Moscow and the Moscow region shows in the area of ​​Tverskaya Zastava Square, on Volgogradsky Prospekt, as well as the Volzhsky Boulevard crossing it. Yandex maps also mark where the Leningradskoye and Mezhdunarodnoe highways intersect, at the junction of Yaroslavskoye Shosse and Olimpiysky Prospekt. This map of Moscow with traffic jams suggests that this is where the most emergency areas are located. In addition, traffic jam statistics in Moscow hourly will also be known. On our website you can see traffic jams throughout Russia. Users can bookmark the site and see them online.

In 2018, Yandex absorbed the SMIlink company, which provided information about traffic conditions for the service "Traffic jams in Moscow", and a year later the functionality was integrated into Yandex.Maps. Since then, residents of more than 40 Russian cities and several dozen foreign settlements have been actively using the service to build routes to avoid congestion.

What is Yandex.Traffic

For some, this is just a useful functional layer on Yandex.Maps, and for some, it is a kind of social network that can be used in parallel with Google maps, for example. The direct purpose of “Traffic Traffic” is to assess and predict the traffic situation for the settlement as a whole and for each individual section of the road separately.

Yandex.Traffic points system, which is better 1 or 10?

Looking at Yandex.Maps with the “Traffic” layer activated, the driver sees the city in shades from green to red, each of which corresponds to a traffic speed rating in points from 1 to 10, where 1 (green) means the roads are completely clear, 10 (red) - it’s easier to park the car and move on foot.

Each street, alley or highway has its own score.

The point system is individual for each city and for each road. An average speed of 25 km/h is the norm for a narrow lane in the center of Moscow, but for the ring road of a provincial city it is a traffic jam.

Road congestion in Yandex.Maps

1 - Roads are clear;
2 - The roads are almost clear;
3 - Difficulty in places;
4 - Difficulty in places;
5 - Traffic is heavy;
6 - Movement is difficult;
7 - Serious traffic jams;
8 - Multi-kilometer traffic jams;
9 - The city is standing;
10 - Walk faster.

How does Yandex.Traffic find out about traffic jams?

To create a map of traffic jams in the city, it is not necessary to place observers with binoculars and walkie-talkies on trees and poles; it is much easier to use GPS/GLONASS data provided by the users themselves, who have turned on the “Report traffic jams” mode on their smartphones, tablets and navigators. In addition, data comes from numerous vehicles of partner companies equipped with GPS trackers.

In addition to the above methods of obtaining traffic data, motorists themselves can manually provide the service with additional information about accidents and repair work on the road.

To activate the traffic layer on Yandex.Maps on your computer, click on the icon in the form of a traffic light.

By collecting detailed statistics on traffic congestion over many years, the Traffic Jams service has learned to predict traffic jams (works only in the web version of Yandex.Maps), which are characterized by a temporal pattern. For example, Yandex can tell a driver in an unfamiliar city which streets will be congested during rush hour.

To do this, activate Yandex.Traffic, in the left column, click the link button "Now", and then click the item "Select day".

A calendar will open where you can select to display predicted traffic congestion for any given day.
