BR Verkehr

BR Verkehr sends as offer of the Bayerischer Rundfunk over the DAB + net. The program consists almost entirely of traffic information received by the BR traffic department from police, ADAC or other media. All traffic information and messages are given to a so-called speech synthesis system. The result is a female computer-generated voice that reads out the messages and info. An active moderation does not take place.

The BR also transmits traffic data in other radio waves in TPEG format ( Transport Protocol Experts Group format, a further development of the common TMC system).

The channel can be received in the DAB + network of the Bayerischer Rundfunk in Volume III, which currently covers large parts of Bavaria and is still under construction. The transmitters are operated in a common wave network on channel 11D. From 1 September 2005 to 9 January 2012, BR Verkehr was also available via DVB-S in the ARD Digital program package throughout Europe. The German cable providers also fed the station digitally into the cable network until 9 January 2012.

It is also possible to call up the complete traffic information by calling 01805/333066.

On 9 January 2012 the distribution of BR traffic via DVB-S and DVB-C was switched off. Since then, it can be read on the former broadcasting space of BR Verkehr in the EPG that the station is now distributed exclusively via DAB +.
