Why Did it Take So Long

for someone to come up with what seems to be such a simple yet ingenious idea. If you live in Southside Hampton Roads, you need this app.

Virginia only

I guess this app would be great if it had any other sites besides Virginia

Love It!

I’ve been waiting for this app for years. Can’t wait until they integrate it into Waze and other map apps for avoiding traffic delays!

Great App

I’ve been waiting for an app like this. Data is accurate and timely.

My only complaint is lack of alerts through Apple car play.

Otherwise, this is one of the best apps to come along.

Required if you live in Chesapeake

This app is an absolute gym for planning your route to avoid train delays. So far it has been accurate and great! Love it! Only recommendation would be to add a widget.
