Waze and the City of Toronto sharing traffic data to help motorists navigate better

Toronto Mayor Tory announced the City of Toronto will become the next partner in Waze’s Connected Citizen’s Program. This is to help alleviate the growing traffic situation in the GTA.  Last month, .Waze’s third-annual Driver Satisfaction Index found that Toronto drivers are the second-least satisfied of all Canadian cities surveyed

The partnership will create a two-way data flow between Waze and the City of Toronto, benefiting drivers all over the GTA. Waze will have access to the city’s real-time data, better helping drivers to avoid road closures, construction and traffic jams while Toronto will receive anonymous driving data from Waze’s more than 560,000 drivers in the GTA, giving the city additional visibility into traffic patterns for decision making.
