User Reviews

Users find Move Metairie Tracking Forward useful for Metairie Road crossings and commutes, with a built-in live camera and notification features adding practical value. However, the app's coverage is limited to a single crossing, with requests for Labarre and other locations. Map functionality is limited—no panning or zooming to view other tracks. Traffic reliability is affected by a camera delay, and some users report unreliable notifications. Overall, it's appreciated for its core usefulness but needs broader coverage and improved usability and timing.
Pros
  • Very useful for daily commute on Metairie Road.
  • Built-in live camera feed is a nice touch.
  • Notifications help you be alerted about trains.
  • Detour planning is easier thanks to real-time tracking (when working).
Cons
  • Covers only the Metairie Road crossing; Labarre and other crossings are missing.
  • Map is not navigable; you can't pan or zoom to see other trains.
  • Live camera feed is delayed by about a minute.
  • Notifications can be unreliable or require reloading to work.

Do not get the notification anymore saying a train is heading either way I have reloaded the app. There’s no difference. Did they change it that you just have to keep looking at your app to see if the train is coming?

This only shows Metarie road crossing but I need to know where the train is from labarre as well. You can’t move the map to show where the train is either so your stuck at one location where it crosses.

There are several more crossings that have similar effect on traffic on Metairie road. Tracking 1 out of all of the crossings is not that helpful.
