City and state governments can also save money by partnering with Waze. Collecting traffic data can be expensive, and although cities have road sensors and traffic cameras deployed on many major roads, covering every residential street can be a challenge. The Waze partnership can be an easy way for a department of transportation to expand its view of its roads and streets, completely free of charge.
Waze sees the Connected Citizens program as a way to grow and improve its services. The data Waze receives from cities allows for even more accurate inputs to complex traffic algorithms.
