heal.abstract	This paper demonstrates a dynamic map, referred to as the Athens Dynamic Traffic Map (ADTM), with interactive features for the provision of travel information to the users of an extended, multimodal transport network in the metropolitan area of Athens, Greece. The map offers a state-of-the-art geospatial representation of the time-varying road traffic conditions, in conjunction with information on the services provided by all available public transport modes. This unique combination of private and multimodal public transport information services allows users to update in a timely manner their pre-trip or en-route travel decisions, including departure time, route, destination, mode selection and combinations of them, depending on the prevailing traffic conditions and/or the existence of incidents and special events. The paper signifies the potential of the ADTM to enhance the efficient use of the transport network, and it describes several map features and details which can support the decisions of road and public transport users.	en
