Travel Time Reliability:
Making It There On Time, All The Time
This figure shows two line charts, each depicting travel time over a year. The first chart's caption says "How traffic conditions have been communicated" and shows a single flat line extending across the entire year, representing an annual average travel time. The second chart's caption says "What travelers experience" and shows a fluctuating line that represents the travel time for each day of the year. Three days with the longest travel times are highlighted, with a caption that reads "…and what they remember".
