Using Traffic Scotland

Traffic Scotland enables the collection and distribution of real-time traffic information relating to incidents and events currently taking place on the Scottish trunk road network. We track this website, along with their social media channels, everyday as they provide us with information about road conditions which improves the safety and the efficiency of the network.

Traffic Scotland collects information about roadworks, accidents, congestion and weather events and is used to improve the operational efficiency of the Scottish trunk road network.

MacDonald Transport Ltd check updates daily and as required to assist us with making informed decisions as to the timing, routing and travel mode choice regarding current or proposed journeys. This information helps by reducing the disruption caused by incidents, minimising the effects of congestion and thereby improving the safety and efficiency of the road network.
