TRIMARC keeps you informed

A quick visit to www.trimarc.org can help local residents and visitors avoid traffic congestion, reduce stress and save gas. The website provides the latest information about construction and traffic incidents through 70 cameras installed along the five interstates in Louisville.

Visitors to the website can view real time traffic conditions by interacting with the system of cameras. They can also find updated travel times before getting on the road. TRIMARC also updates the messages posted on the overhead signs on local interstates.

TRIMARC (Traffic Response and Incident Management Assisting the River Cities) is an integrated system of sensors, cameras, dynamic message signs, highway advisory radio and computers monitoring more than 60 miles of interstate traffic in the greater Louisville and Southern Indiana urbanized area. Information on traffic flow, construction areas and accidents is collected at the TRIMARC traffic control center. Once collected, the information is then disseminated to motorists via the website, overhead dynamic message signs and highway advisory radio, 1610 AM.

For more information about TRIMARC, check out their website. Using this site can and will save you time and gas money.
