Services completed:
- Flash Application Design
The City of Minneapolis Downtown Lane Closure web site was completed in November, 2002. This site was developed for the city of Minneapolis using Flash to communicate to the public road and/or lane closures. This program helps to minimize traffic congestion and make daily commutes easier for the downtown traveler. A person can track their usual route to work and use alternate routes if there is an obstruction due to road or utility work.
- Database Application
The database application behind the Flash image is extensive. City administrators update a database of lane closures and obstructions. The website is intelligent enough to fetch the current lane closure data and publish the data at the proper zoom level.
