Traffic Jams
Traffic jams happen when something -- anything -- blocks a busy intersection.
You'll receive a dispatch message, and a line on your city map extends from you to the traffic jam. A traffic jam icon will appear on your city map for each additional traffic problem.
Traffic jam reported!
Use your spotlight and megaphone to re-route traffic from intersections near the jam.
You should also dispatch police to help clear the traffic jam. Police "unjam" traffic by being near it. The jam is considered cleared when traffic flows freely.
If the traffic jam is caused by burning debris, you must put out the fire, after which the debris disappears. Even after debris is cleared, cars may still be jammed and need messages to become "free."
You receive your bonus payment and points if the jam is cleared within a certain time.
This is rush hour?
