How this service works
MapQuest — live traffic incidents and construction inside a box, 1¢. Params: `boundingBox` ("lat1,lng1,lat2,lng2", any two corners), optionally `filters` (array of construction | incidents | event | congestion). Each incident carries type, severity, a short description, start/end times and coordinates.
Output
A list of traffic incidents within the specified bounding box, each containing incident type (construction, incident, event, or congestion), severity level, a short human-readable description, start and end times, and geographic coordinates of the incident.
Example use cases
Route planning around road incidents
“Before I drive from Santa Monica to Downtown LA, can you check for any traffic incidents, construction, or congestion in the bounding box from 34.00,-118.50 to 34.05,-118.25 so I know what to avoid?”
Construction monitoring for a city district
“I need a list of all active construction zones in the Manhattan area — use bounding box 40.70,-74.02 to 40.78,-73.95 and filter for construction only.”
Real-time incident feed for a logistics dashboard
“Fetch me all live traffic incidents and congestion events in the Chicago downtown corridor, bounding box 41.85,-87.65 to 41.90,-87.62, filtering for incidents and congestion.”
Technical details
Endpoint
POSThttps://vaaya.ai/api/run/mapquest/traffic-incidents?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint when you need real-time, location-bounded traffic intelligence — specifically live incidents, construction, events, or congestion — for a defined geographic area. Prefer this over static map tiles or routing APIs when you need structured incident metadata (type, severity, timestamps, coordinates) rather than just visual traffic overlays. Best for logistics, navigation pre-checks, or real-time monitoring dashboards.
Side effects
- Missing or malformed boundingBox string returns a validation error
- Bounding box that is too large may return truncated or empty results
- Invalid filter enum values cause request rejection
- No incidents in the area returns an empty incident list
- Network or MapQuest API downtime causes service unavailability
