NEW TOMTOM DATA REVEALS RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC DOUBLES JOURNEY TIMES FOR COMMUTERS

TomTom analyses traffic congestion in over 200 cities around the world

News Release from TomTom, March 31, 2015

TomTom’s annual Traffic Index measures the impact traffic congestion has on over 200 cities around the world, helping drivers, businesses and governments better manage congestion.

This year, the Index reveals that the evening rush hour is the most congested time of day on virtually every road network around the world. If you have to drive during rush hour, you can expect to spend double the time in the car, on average, stuck in traffic.

TomTom’s mission is to reduce traffic congestion globally. We give drivers the real-time traffic information and smart routing they need to avoid congested roads and get there faster. We also work with businesses and governments to help measure the performance of a road network and pinpoint areas which can be improved.
