The award recognizes Wejo’s recently launched Historic Traffic Patterns and Real-Time Traffic Intelligence (RTTI™) solutions for their innovation, performance, ease of use and manageability, functionality, value and impact across industries. These award-winning solutions are Wejo’s latest offerings that address what the company sees as a nearly $3.4 billion total addressable market for traffic information solutions by 2030.

“Historic Traffic Patterns and RTTI™ empower our customers to shape the future of transportation and road safety to drive the future of smart mobility, smart cities and smart living,” Richard Barlow, Founder and CEO of Wejo. “As we continue to develop and implement Smart Mobility for Good™ products and services, we are honored to have these solutions recognized this year and Wejo for a second year by AutoTech Breakthrough Awards.”

Introduced in 2022, both Historic Traffic Patterns and RTTI™ solutions use connected vehicle data from 95% of the United States road infrastructure, helping to inform decisions that minimize traffic and congestion, which leads to a reduction in emissions and safer roads. Historic Traffic Patterns allows government agencies, civil engineering firms, mapping/navigation providers, logistics companies and commercial real estate developers the ability to request specific data and insights from highly granular and accurate historic traffic patterns over the last several years from any specific location in the US, even if no monitors or sensors were previously installed.  

RTTI™ can be utilized by public agencies, civil engineering firms, mapping & navigation providers and logistics companies to get a better view of what’s happening with live data. These insights allow for a real-world impact on road safety and congestion within a community using easily digestible real-time traffic data. The solution offers several features, including ultra-low latency, highly granular traffic updates and accurate traffic events and real-time speeds and travel times for roads. RTTI™ enables quick detection of changing traffic conditions, identification of road closures and slowdown situations, helping unpredictable road events become more manageable.
