The thermostat will not affect the car's cooling-system behavior in traffic, unless it is not opening fully. If you show a normal reading at consistent speeds (like on the highway), I doubt if the thermostat is faulty.
My '91 always showed the same behavior as your's, near red when the fan activated, but there shouldn't be a difference between its behavior in traffic and idling. I'd check the thermoswitch, and it is probably a proprietary part obtainable only from your dealer, but you might try Auto Zone or Napa first. The switch may be a cross-over with other cars and will be available by a third party.
