GET THERE FASTER WITH TRAFFICMASTER ON YOUR MOBILE FOR FREE

Trafficmaster Companion Lite – a unique smart phone traffic avoiding satellite navigation service that is supported by real personal assistants to download routes, is now available for free on a 30 day trial. What’s more Trafficmaster Companion Lite now comes with the option to download routes using postcodes, address entry and setting up favourite destinations.

Available on any iPhone or Blackberry 3G phone, you just select the Trafficmaster Companion Lite application in either the Apple iStore or the Blackerry AppWorld and download one of the market’s best navigation services. Voted as Best Handheld Satnav service by Business Car magazine and recommended by The AA, it provides the most up-to-date mapping available and uses Trafficmaster’s real-time traffic information to calculate the best and quickest routes. Trafficmaster Companion’s route calculation uses data taken directly from Trafficmaster’s network of 7,500 road side sensors that monitors traffic flow minute by minute. This provides the driver with the fastest route available and has proven to save drivers 4 hours a month. In addition with a reduction of idle times, carbon emissions are dramatically lowered. It is also supported by real personal assistants (PAs), who are experts in routing and helping you find the right destination. So whether you want to find the nearest car park or want to be guided to a secluded beach, they will locate the position and download the route to you in seconds. This saves you time scrolling through the address book or putting in postcodes and it eases the worry of not knowing if you are actually going to the right destination. In addition the PA’s are also on hand, 24 hours a day, to help you in any emergency or breakdown situations. Knowing your exact location they will provide a direct link between you and the emergency services or your breakdown provider. Trafficmaster Companion Lite is free to all subscribers for 30 days. Thereafter iPhone users are automatically transferred to a Pay As You Go service and Blackberry users have the option to choose from a monthly, annual or lifetime subscription. All PA assisted routes cost around £1.20 a route.* For more information about Trafficmaster Companion Lite and Trafficmaster’s other services go to www.trafficmaster.co.uk ENDS
