We present a near-linear time approximation algorithm for the subtrajectory cluster problem of $c$-packed trajectories. The problem involves finding $m$ subtrajectories within a given trajectory $T$ such that their Fréchet distances are at most $(1 + \varepsilon)d$, and at least one subtrajectory must be of length~$l$ or longer. A trajectory $T$ is $c$-packed if the intersection of $T$ and any ball $B$ with radius $r$ is at most $c \cdot r$ in length. Previous results by Gudmundsson and Wong \cite{GudmundssonWong2022Cubicupperlower} established an $Ω(n^3)$ lower bound unless the Strong Exponential Time Hypothesis fails, and they presented an $O(n^3 \log^2 n)$ time algorithm. We circumvent this conditional lower bound by studying subtrajectory cluster on $c$-packed trajectories, resulting in an algorithm with an $O((c^2 n/\varepsilon^2)\log(c/\varepsilon)\log(n/\varepsilon))$ time complexity.
