This report discusses the application of travel time data and statistics to travel time reliability analyses. It covers topics such as data sources for reliability, data processing methods, case studies comparing reliability measures, and the conclusions drawn from the analysis. The page includes various figures and tables detailing data processing steps and results. The document appears to be a technical guide, primarily focusing on travel time reliability in transportation systems, published by the Federal Highway Administration in July 2023.

In 2022, US urban traffic congestion trends showed a mixed picture. Average daily congested hours on freeways decreased by 10 minutes to 2 hours and 55 minutes. However, the Travel Time Index (TTI) increased slightly from 1.19 to 1.22, and the Planning Time Index (PTI) rose from 1.72 to 1.80, indicating increased travel time unreliability. While 73% of metropolitan areas saw no change or mixed results, 21% experienced worsening congestion, and 6% improved in all three measures. The report underscores the importance of data-driven approaches to address traffic challenges and emphasizes the role of the National Performance Management Research Data Set (NPMRDS).
