Why does the travel time and congestion information disappear when there are major construction projects, when we need the information the most?
Unfortunately, most major construction projects involve removal of the existing roadbed and other activities that interrupt the operations of the traffic sensors and / or their communication to the central control system. Once the construction activities are over, operation of the affected traffic sensors are restored. Until then, there is no way to get the data. Occasionally, a project will allow for the installation of temporary sensors to fill the gap during construction, but this is not always feasible. Every effort is made to bring the sensor systems back into operation as soon as possible.
