An approach is provided for detecting and/or verifying a traffic incident (e.g., a road closure) on one of nearby paths that are susceptible to location sensor errors, digital map errors, and/or map mis-matching errors. The approach involves, for example, determining sensor data collected from one or more sensors of one or more devices traveling on either road link of the at least two road links connected at an intersection point. The approach also involves aggregating the sensor data to said either road link of at least two road links. The approach further involves filtering the sensor data based on a distance threshold from the intersection point. The approach further involves determining a traffic incident on said either road link based on the filtered sensor data.
