MoDOT enhances mobile access to traveler information map

MISSOURI (KOAM) -- The Missouri Department of Transportation is allowing the MoDOT Traveler Information Map to be accessible on mobile browser.

According to MoDOT, the update will allow the map to be displayed on mobile devices without having to download the Traveler Information Map App.

MoDOT says the app provides travelers with public traffic updates, road conditions, and closures. MoDOT says the app can still be used during this update. Once the app is downloaded, it will also launch in the 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."
