How this service works
Get real-time alerts data and jams information from Waze in a geographic rectangular area by bottom-left and top-right latitude, longitude pairs. Supports all Waze alert types including: accidents, road blocks, hazards, traffic jams, police, and more.
Output
Returns a data object containing two arrays: 'alerts' with real-time incident reports (each including type, subtype, location coordinates, street, city, country, reliability score, and update timestamp) and 'jams' with traffic congestion records (each including jam type such as MODERATE/HEAVY/STAND_STILL, level 0–5, severity score, speed in km/h, length in meters, polyline coordinates, start/end location descriptions, and update timestamp).
Example use cases
Morning commute traffic check
“Check for any Waze traffic jams and accidents along the area between coordinates 40.7480,-74.0060 and 40.7580,-73.9760 in Manhattan right now — give me up to 25 alerts, focusing on accidents and road blocks.”
Event road closure monitoring
“I'm managing traffic around a stadium event in Los Angeles. Can you pull all Waze road block and police alerts within the bounding box from 34.0100,-118.2950 to 34.0400,-118.2550, showing up to 50 alerts?”
Hazard detection for delivery routing
“Before I dispatch my delivery drivers, can you get current Waze hazard and jam data for the Chicago area between 41.8500,-87.7000 bottom-left and 41.9000,-87.6200 top-right, with a max of 30 jams and 30 alerts?”
Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://agents.openwebninja.com/waze/alerts-and-jams?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need live Waze-sourced traffic intelligence — accidents, hazards, police sightings, road blocks, and congestion — for a specific geographic area defined by coordinates. It is superior to generic traffic APIs when Waze community-reported incident granularity and jam polylines are needed for routing decisions, fleet management, or real-time situational awareness. Prefer it over mapping APIs that only return historical or aggregated traffic data.
Side effects
- Missing both bounding box and center/radius parameters returns a validation error
- Invalid latitude/longitude format causes a bad request error
- Very large geographic areas may return truncated results limited by max_alerts and max_jams
- No alerts or jams in the requested area returns empty arrays
- Rate limiting or payment/credit exhaustion returns 402 or 429 error
- Waze data unavailability in certain regions may return sparse or empty results
