Welcome to the Virginia 511 app, the official mobile application of the Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT). With this new app, you can discover the most up-to-date information available on the 511 travel page. It's a one-stop-shop for travel and traffic information. You can find more information about the region at any of its five locations, and see if you need to be aware of a traffic problem or incident.

The 511 app can connect to your smartphone and tablet's location and route through Google Maps. With a few taps, you can navigate and find your way. Add a destination and get driving directions from the point you choose. You can also search for local businesses, places to eat and visit, and any other place you want to go.

It has a large selection of options for you, but there are times when you have a need for extra help. That's why it has an option to help you find nearby hospitals, nursing homes, and other places. Plus, there are several more options to help you stay connected. If you want to talk to other travelers, it can suggest routes based on the traffic along the route you choose.
