Get Live Traffic Info on Patch

Here at Patch, our goal is to make your life a little easier. And if we can save you a few bucks along the way, even better.

Late last year, Patch rolled out our new traffic alert and gas price tracking tools, available by clicking over to the Traffic and Gas tab. (See the tab in the bar above.)

The page is automatically updated with fresh information courtesy of MapQuest, one of our siblings in the larger AOL family.

So now, if you’re trying to avoid traffic while commuting, shopping or heading out of town, we’ll help you figure out the best route to take. Traffic is updated every five minutes.
