Tuesday, February 26th, 2013TEXAS TRANSPORTATION INSTITUTE
The data behind the 2012 Urban Mobility Report are hundreds of speed data points on almost every mile of major road in urban America for almost every 15-minute period of the average day. For the congestion analyst, this means 600 million speeds on 875,000 thousand miles across the U.S. – an awesome amount of information. For the policy analyst and transportation planner, this means congestion problems can be described in detail and solutions can be targeted with much greater specificity and accuracy.
