Traffic Giant is a computer game created in 2000 by Austrian software company JoWooD. It allows players to create a working public transportation system in a city using buses, streetcars, commuter rail, suspended monorail (much like the Schwebebahn Wuppertal), and Maglev trains. The game used 2-D isometric graphics for its interface, much like many tycoon-style games of the time. Although the game is no longer supported, and has long been discontinued, it has a strong community of users.

Since the map editor has been unofficially released, new maps are still created by active players.

It bears some similarity to Chris Sawyer's Transport Tycoon and Simutrans.
