TrafficLand®, the largest authorized aggregator of live traffic video in the U.S., announced that it has accelerated the roll-out of its national traffic information network, by providing commuters, businesses, government agencies, and broadcast partners access to cameras in Chicago and Boston. The addition of two major markets further extends TrafficLand’s coverage of thousands of cameras in the majority of the

top 50 U.S. markets.

Additionally, in New Jersey, TrafficLand was awarded a contract to act as the primary distribution point for third-party access to the state’s traffic camera video, including the heavily-traveled New Jersey Turnpike. The company also executed an agreement with the Colorado Department of Transportation to access their traffic cameras statewide with the option of hosting video on their website.

Commenting on these recent agreements, CEO and Founder Lawrence Nelson stated, “Our DOT partners understand the value of a video networking partner with the infrastructure to ensure their camera video availability during peak demand periods. Our patent-pending Image Engine™ technology and fault-tolerant data center deliver the peace-of-mind that their traffic camera video will be available when it’s needed most.”
