Traffic.com has a feature called Jam Factor that gives you a 0-10 score for traffic conditions for a particular area. The system also lists matters of concern, such as construction, that is slowing traffic.
Traffic.com's Jam Factor combines real-time speed and travel time measurements calculated from digital traffic sensors combined with information from state-of-the-art operations centers to provide a user-friendly, yet comprehensive, measure of the traffic intensity on a roadway. This color-coded, numerical system clearly and consistently identifies traffic conditions and delays on a scale from 0-10 with 10 representing the worst traffic conditions along the driver's route.
For an example, you can click here to see a map and Jam Factor report for the I-78 NJ Tpk Newark Bay Ext./Holland Tunnel - Outbound. You can find traffic near you by typing in your zip code in the box on the traffic.com homepage.
