Incidents in the XFINITY Traffic app are connected to the closest traffic camera to give the user the most up to date picture of the road conditions, allowing for ‘ground-truth’ visual verification of how weather events, congestion, and traffic incidents will affect their day. Comcast’s XFINITY X1 end users have access to Vizzion’s 33,000 US traffic cameras in 300 cities.
