Over the past months, residents of St. Petersburg have repeatedly recalled what 10-point traffic jams are. Heavy snowfalls, the closure of Petrogradskaya, the renovation of Dvortsovoy and traffic restrictions on dozens of streets led the city to a transport collapse, in which Internet service Yandex.Traffic recommends walking. The Village found out how Yandex receives information about the current traffic situation by contacting a regional representative of the company.

We receive the bulk of the data automatically from users of the Yandex.Maps and Yandex.Navigator mobile applications. If the user has agreed to transfer data to us (checked the appropriate box in the application), then Every few seconds, the device, using GPS, transmits its geographic coordinates, direction and speed of movement to the Yandex.Traffic computer system. Naturally, all data is anonymous: we cannot determine from it which person or car we are talking about. We only know the speed, coordinates and direction of movement of a certain point. Thus, we automatically collect data from many users (in Kyiv, for example, tens of thousands of people). For each user, the analyzer program builds a single route of movement with information about the speed of its passage - a track. Tracks come not only from private drivers, but also from cars of Yandex partner companies (organizations with a large fleet of cars plying around the city). |
To correctly recreate the picture of road congestion, it is necessary to check whether the track corresponds to the situation on the site. After all, users of mobile Yandex.Maps may stop or slow down not because of traffic jams, but, for example, to buy something at a kiosk or not to miss a subtle turn. And if several more cars with mobile devices are freely driving by, such a track will be eliminated by the algorithm, because it does not reflect the real congestion of the area. Accordingly, the more users provide us with data about their movement, the more accurate the information about traffic jams will be.
After combining the verified tracks, the algorithm analyzes them and assigns “green”, “yellow” and “red” ratings to the corresponding road sections. This diagram is drawn on the “Traffic Yandex.Maps” layer - both in the mobile application and in the web service.
In addition to their coordinates, motorists can provide the service with additional information about accidents, repair work or other road troubles. To do this, you need to put the appropriate point in the mobile Yandex.Maps and "Yandex.Navigator".
In Moscow, St. Petersburg, Kyiv and several other large cities, where traffic jams have already become an invincible phenomenon, the Yandex.Traffic service evaluates the situation on a 10-point scale. For each city, the point scale is set up differently: what is a minor problem in Moscow, is a serious traffic jam in another city. For example, in St. Petersburg with 6 points a driver will lose approximately the same amount of time as in Moscow with 5.
In the first week after the January holidays there is very little traffic jam, then the congestion gradually increases and by the end of January it reaches working levels. We observed this phenomenon in 2012 and expect it at the beginning of 2013. From February to the end of May, the situation in the city generally remained at the same level. If you do not take into account the May holidays, the average congestion in St. Petersburg in the morning and evening was 5 and 7 points, respectively.
In summer, traffic in the city becomes a little freer. In the morning, the Yandex.Traffic traffic light showed an average of only 4 points, and in the evening - 6–7. But already in the last week of August, the city’s congestion increases sharply: people return from vacation and begin to actively prepare for the new school year and business season. With the onset of September, the road situation stabilized. The average traffic score rose 20% above summer levels. Little by little, road congestion increased, and already on November 29, with a large amount of snow falling, it reached 10 points - for the first time in two years in the evening rush hour. Already on November 30, the record was broken: 10 points in the middle of the day were recorded for the first time in three years. For the third time this year, 10 points were reached on December 25 due to snowfall and the general pre-New Year increased activity of motorists.
TV channel "360" found out at what hours and on what routes it is better to drive in order to avoid traffic jams.
Country traffic jam season is officially open. The slowest directions do not change from year to year. There are eastern highways in the direction of Zhukovsky, Ramensky, Lyubertsy, Lytkarino, Reutov - these are cities with dense buildings, whose residents commute to work in the capital. Yaroslavka, beloved by summer residents, freezes, traffic jams there even at night (from 0:00 to 04:00) sometimes stay around 7 points, on Dmitrovsky - 6 points, Nosovikhinsky - about 5. But along the M4 "Don" from Moscow you will fly with the breeze - evening speed before the weekend - 70 kilometers per hour.
When there are no traffic jams towards the region
It is best to leave on Friday before lunch, or closer to midnight. Although on some roads traffic jams persist until late at night: these are Yaroslavskoye, Dmitrovskoye and Nosovikhinskoye highways. On Saturday, traffic jams start at 12:00 and end around 16:00.
The busiest areas are those where the number of lanes leading into the region decreases after crossing the Moscow Ring Road. These are Shchelkovskoye and Altufevskoye highways, Entuziastov highway, Ryazansky prospect. In the evening it is also difficult to drive along Profsoyuznaya Street, Leninsky Prospekt and Leningradskoye Highway into the region.
When there are no traffic jams on the roads towards Moscow
The busiest day in the summer when traveling to Moscow is, of course, Sunday. Traffic begins to increase as early as 12:00, by 14:00 the roads are 5 points higher. The traffic speeds up only at 23:00, at which time you should set off on the return journey.
There are those who move to the capital early on Monday morning. But there is always a risk of being late for work. Summer residents start at 7:00: traffic reaches 4 points, and subsides only by noon. The fastest way to return to Moscow on Sunday evening and Monday morning is along the M4 Don, Simferopol highway, the route from Domodedovo airport and Kyiv highway.
Some Muscovites make a deal with their employer in the summer - they take a day off on Friday and go to work on Sunday. This option can save up to six hours of life in traffic jams, because on Thursday evening traffic from the capital is free, as well as in the opposite direction on Saturday evening.
Road repairs in 2016
Rublevskoye Highway will be partially blocked. This is due to the construction of the southern section of the North-Western Road. The restriction of traffic to two lanes will be in effect around the clock in the following areas: the exit from Rublevskoye Highway to Yartsevskaya Street - from April 25 to July 5, the exit from Yartsevskaya Street to Rublevskoye Highway - from July 8 to August 24. Until August 11, restrictions apply from house No. 109 to the intersection with Akademika Pavlova Street.
In addition, repair work will be carried out on the overpass over the highway at the 35th kilometer of Kashirskoye Highway in the Domodedovo region; the Moscow Ring Road is already being actively repaired in 86 sections, including interchanges and direct sections. Repair work is being carried out on the Entuziastov Highway, Varshavskoye, Mozhaiskoye, Dmitrovskoye and Altufevskoye Shosse and Ryazansky Prospekt - all in sections between the Third Transport Ring and the Moscow Ring Road, where congestion occurs even during non-traffic times.
On the Leningradskoye Highway, at the exit from Khimki towards the region, the asphalt is being replaced, so the road is “red”. On the Minskoye Highway, in the section along Odintsovo, the road surface in the middle lane is being replaced; motorists are advised to bypass this section along the Kievskoye Highway.
