Journey Times

Road corridor used for journey time monitoring

Measure how long journeys take and how consistently people can make them.

Journey time surveys track travel across a route or network over agreed periods. The results show how journey duration varies by direction, time of day or survey day, helping teams understand reliability as well as typical travel times.

From route selection to useful comparisons

We work with you to define the route, start and end points, any intermediate sections and the periods to be surveyed. Consistent route definitions make it easier to compare sections and understand where changes in travel time occur along a journey.

Results can be summarised by direction and survey period, with comparisons that show both typical journey duration and variation. This provides a clear evidence base for corridor reviews, scheme monitoring and wider studies of how people move through a network.

What this survey can help you understand

  • Compare routes

    See how alternative routes perform and where delays appear along a corridor.

  • Measure variation

    Understand differences between peak and off-peak periods or between survey days.

  • Identify delay patterns

    Use time-based results to focus attention on locations and periods that need further investigation.

  • Track change

    Repeat surveys can help assess how journey times respond to network or operational changes.

Survey routes, timings and reporting can be tailored to your study so the findings are relevant to the decisions you need to make.
