Oh, this is so sad, they keep build new roads for PR and not the public transport
First in the EU as expected .
when the A7 nears Hamburg is always a damn catastrophe, it’s so damn weird, at least Berlin is the capital
In 2019 I was in Beograd and during peak hours the whole city was just one big congestion. Well it’s a city with 1.4 milion people and until today it still hasn’t a subway, just trams and busses.
I wasn’t expecting Lodz, Poznan and Odessa in this list.
Vienna <3
Woop Dublin on the list!
I live about 30 minutes from Dublin.
If I need to get into the city center it’s 30 minute to the city, then another 40 minutes to the city center.
And the bus is even slower.
Just have some podcasts ready to listen to. Long ones.
Fuck Bucharest and fuck cars (obligatory /r/fuckcars). There are places where you literally can’t walk on the fucking sidewalks because they’re littered with cars. I’ve even been to one neighborhood where there was only one thin-ass sliver of a sidewalk on only one side of the street, which I’m pretty sure is illegal (and if not, it should be) but hey, we must center the entirety of our infrastructure and developments around the almighty car.
In my freshman year of college my dorm was a bus trip away from the metro station that took me to Uni, and in the morning that bus trip took like 35 minutes, most of which was spent just sitting in traffic. On Sunday evenings that same bus trip took 10 minutes or slightly less.
Not to mention earplugs are basically a must at night if you have an apartment facing a busy street.
This seems not right. My 13 minute drive to work in Madrid takes 45 at rush hour if I’m lucky.
How is western germany not red? Traffic is absolutely attrocious.
Turku mentioned! Kuoppatorilla tavataan!
Joking aside, it is rather hilarious how the congestion in Turku is about on the same level as in Helsinki region despite Turku being 1/5 of the size.
If Serbia was in the EU, it would be OVER 9000
I wonder why it is so bad in the UK. I have never seen traffic this bad in small towns before moving to England.
Except for one really bad roundabout, I actually found traffic in Odessa pretty smooth. It’s full, yeah, but it flows fine.
Kyiv, Bucharest and Istanbul are hell on earth.
That’s actually pretty interesting to me.
Turku has 1/3 of the population of Helsinki. But Still the exact same amount of congestion. Therefore either Turku traffic is horrible, or Helsinki is good. (Turku is horrible)
> Leiden 30%
It should be orange then
Stockholm seems to be waaay too low.
God, do I wish Russia had actual Transport engineers…
Both St. Petersburg and Moscow are extremely congested and the downtowns are full of cars. Moscow is at least Building more lines, but St. Petersburg has been in stasis for years.
If the authorities reduced car lanes in St. Petersburg, replacing them with wider sidewalks and Bike lanes, they could significantly reduce congestion. St. Petersbourg is quite dense and Flat, so cycling could be a really competitive there.
**Brno** is shown both yellow (20-29%, per legend) and with a value of 30%.
Which one is true?
They clearly never went to Antwerp
Surprised to see Moscow so high, don’t they have one of the world’s largest metro?
I expected that Budapest would be worse. Mountain terrain + huge river in the middle of the city are not the best for easy traffic.
Edinburgh is worse than London, Birmingham or Glasow, really? Find that hard to believe
Oh, Poland, that’s very *american car culture* of you
Aberdeen would’ve been the darkest of red on this map a few years back. It sometimes took me 4 hours to do a 20 minute trip from south to north of the city.
The bypass, despite it being a bit of a detour, has done wonders though.
Rome percentage was so high it caused an overflow in their system (2^64 %) and looped up to 38%
car traffic congestion*
Number one, number one! Oh, wait…
Wow you can literally see our little ABC-axis on this map
