"We are dedicated to providing accurate traffic information in the fastest, most efficient way possible, and are proud to now offer our advanced services via HD Radio channels," said Clear Channel Radio EVP/Distribution Development Jeff Littlejohn. "Even in the largest metropolitan areas, real-time traffic information is transmitted in less than a minute, providing a quick, reliable way for drivers to get where they need to go safely."
